Coviance Receives 2025 Jennings Kallen Advisors Entrepreneurial Award
West Des Moines-based fintech recognized for its innovation, growth and contributions to the Greater Des Moines economy.
Coviance was named the recipient of the 2025 Jennings Kallen Advisors Entrepreneurial Award by the Greater Des Moines Partnership. The honor was presented as part of the Partnership’s annual Economic Impact Awards, which recognize companies contributing to the region’s economy through job creation, innovation and capital investment.
The award recognizes Coviance’s continued growth as a West Des Moines-based financial technology company and its commitment to building technology that helps community banks and credit unions modernize home equity lending.
“At the heart of our success is not just technology, but the people behind it,” said Betsey Vold, Coviance's Director of Marketing, who accepted the award on behalf of the company. “This recognition reflects the dedication of our team, the trust of our customers and partners, and our shared belief that meaningful innovation can be built right here in Iowa.”
Coviance employs approximately 75 team members, with 80% of its workforce calling Iowa home. Their experience, creativity, and commitment enable the company to develop technology that helps over 420 community financial institutions operate more efficiently.
Receiving the Jennings Kallen Advisors Entrepreneurial Award also reflects Coviance’s commitment to investing in people, building technology with purpose and contributing to the long-term strength of Iowa’s business community.
“Iowa is already recognized as a leader in agriculture, but it is also becoming a home for financial innovation,” Vold continued. “We're proud to be part of that."
As Coviance continues to grow, the company remains focused on helping community lenders compete in a rapidly evolving financial environment while creating meaningful career opportunities and economic impact in Greater Des Moines.
Coviance extends its appreciation to the Greater Des Moines Partnership, the team at Jennings Kallen Advisors, its team members, and its customers for their continued support of the company’s vision and growth.
