FinovateEurope 2025 Best of Show Winners Announced

FinovateEurope 2025 Best of Show Winners Announced

The votes are in and the people have spoken! After a full day of live fintech demos from companies representing 13 countries, the attendees of FinovateEurope 2025 have made their decision as to which of this year’s 30+ demoing companies will take home a Best of Show trophy.

With no further ado, here are this year’s winners.

Keyless for its technology that replaces traditional multi-factor authentication (MFA) methods with automated biometric authentication, improving the user experience while cutting costs.

R34DY for its solution that helps organizations transform their business by taking the pain out of integrations and making it easy for business owners to create use cases and reduce time to market.

Tweezr for its technology that helps organizations transform and grow by accelerating time-to-market and increasing developer productivity for both legacy system maintenance and modernization (or even obviating modernization all together).

A heartfelt thanks to all the demoing companies, sponsors, speakers, and attendees for making FinovateEurope 2025 an exciting, impactful event. Be sure to keep in touch with us on the Finovate blog as these and the rest of our demoing companies continue to innovate and solve problems for banks, financial services providers, fintechs, and their customers.

Our next conference is FinovateSpring, which will be making its San Diego debut on May 7-9. We can’t wait to bring Finovate to California’s second-most populous city and look forward to seeing you there!


Notes on methodology:
1. Only audience members NOT associated with demoing companies were eligible to vote. Finovate employees did not vote.
2. Attendees were encouraged to note their favorites during each day. At the end of the last demo, they chose their three favorites.
3. The exact written instructions given to attendees: “Please rate (the companies) on the basis of demo quality and potential impact of the innovation demoed.”
4. The three companies appearing on the highest percentage of submitted ballots were named “Best of Show.”
