Now in it’s 10th year, the FinTech & Banking Awards celebrates the entrepreneurs and Australian fintechs, neo-banks and banks who are launching great products, creating great partnerships, growing their businesses, here in Australia, and overseas.
Judges have decided the three finalists in each category. These awards show innovation and entrepreneurship is still important in fintech and banking, and is still happening at pace, and at scale!
“On behalf of our Event Partner, Ashurst, our numerous Supporters and Sponsors, and all the Judges involved, we would like to thank the individuals and companies who took the time to enter the Awards – the quality of the submissions is excellent – it will be an exciting Awards night next week!” said Glen Frost, Founder of the FinTech & Banking Awards.
The 10th Annual FinTech & Banking Awards 2025 will be held on Thursday 31st July in Sydney, NSW.
