The Finalists of the 2024 Finnies awards have been announced
The finalists for Australia’s 2024 Finnies fintech business awards have been announced.
The Finnies celebrates achievements across the various components of the fintech industry and among the services that support them.
This year’s awards drew over 322 entries across 19 categories, creating a shortlist of 154 finalists.
The Finnies is judged over two intense rounds involving over 70 experts from across the fintech ecosystem.
For the first round, over 30 judges from across the fintech industry scrutinise all entries to create this year’s pool of finalists for each category.
From here, a second round of judging will commence and another 40 new judges will pour through the finalists entries to pick one winner for each category.
The winners will be announced at Doltone House in Jones Wharf on 6 June 2024.
