Insurance Innovator of the Year finalists named

GPS Wealth, Onetick Technology and SMSF Life Insurance Reviews have named finalists for Insurance Innovator of the Year.

The Awards will recognise outstanding innovation and entrepreneurship in the Australian fintech sector, and identify some of the leading individuals and organisations making a contribution to the burgeoning fintech community.

Since opening for entry last year, Fintech Business has received a significant number of high-calibre submissions, both from those who represent fintech start-ups as well as more established providers and financial service providers that have wholly embraced fintech innovation. 

The finalists have been selected for their ability to demonstrate commitment to paving the way for achievement and advancement in their organisations.

The winners of the Fintech Business Awards will be selected by a panel of soon to be announced expert judges and announced at a premium cocktail event on 24 February at the Ivy Ballroom in Sydney.
