The finalists for FinTech Australia’s sixth annual business awards, known as The Finnies, have been announced.
More than 290 entries were received for this year’s awards, across 20 categories, with the judges selecting a shortlist of 125 finalists.
FinTech Australia CEO Andrew Porter said the calibre of entries continues to rise each year for the Finnies
“The Finnies are one of the most hotly anticipated events of the year for our members. We’re thrilled that once again we’ll be able to hold a live event and celebrate our sector’s achievements in style,” he said.
” I want to personally congratulate all of the finalists, as it was a tough competition this year.
“I also want to thank our partners this year: The Victorian Government, Till Payments, IAG, Mastercard, Afterpay and Global Processing Services. Without their support, this event would not be possible. That’s especially the case for the The Victorian Government who has continued to support this event and has been a true ally to the industry.”
The winners will be announced at a gala event at the Forum Theater in Melbourne on June 23. Tickets will be available from The Finnies website shortly.
There will also be a new Hall of Fame inductee announced, as well as the People’s Choice award for the Fintech Organisation of the Year and Emerging Fintech Organisation of the year.
