Throughout the year we often hear about many of the successes of fintech companies whether it be new partnerships, funding rounds, product innovations or the successes of the great leaders behind each company. It’s not often we get to stop and recognize the companies and individuals who are driving change in financial services. This is why LendIt Fintech created the Industry Awards.
Now in its third year, we are excited to announce the carefully selected finalists from the over 500 submissions we received. From here industry veterans will decide on the winner of each of the 20 categories. Winners will be announced at our awards dinner on April 9th at the Julia Morgan Ballroom in San Francisco. A limited number of tickets are still available for the dinner and they can be purchased on the LendIt Fintech website.
Congratulations to all of the awards finalists!
