The Finovate Awards recognize the best and brightest of the fintech industry, and while we aren’t able to hold an in-person gala dinner this year, it’s more important than ever that we recognize the strong work being done by those across the fintech spectrum who are pushing the industry forward.

We had a record number of nominations this year, and our judges had some very difficult decisions to make as they whittled the nominees down to the short lists for each category. Their initial task is complete, though, and we’re delighted to be able to announce the short lists for each category below. Congrats to all the finalists on making it this far!
