About the episode
Jeannine Glista, co-creator and Executive Producer of Biz Kid$, and Marcell King, COO of Nuuvia, joined us on the show to share the big news regarding the organizations’ partnership announcement to enhance youth banking nationwide, as well as help attract new and younger members to credit unions.
According to Jeannine and Marcell, Biz Kid$’ popular financial education content will be embedded in Nuuvia’s co-branded and white-labeled youth banking solutions that integrate directly with a financial institutions’ online and digital banking apps. This ready-made solution teaches kids about money, budgeting, saving and even entrepreneurship.
They added that financial literacy has long been at the bottom of Gen Z and Gen Alpha social media feeds. Biz Kid$, produced by the creators of the widely popular Bill Nye the Science Guy, is teaming up with Nuuvia to bring that same “make learning ridiculously fun” energy, and apply it to youth finance. This approach connects kids to fundamental, real-world financial applications through a “teach, learn, do” model that boosts financial comprehension.
