Swiss Fintech Startup Awards 2020 finalists revealed

The four finalists for the Swiss Fintech Awards 2020 have been revealed, with the winners to be decided at the Fintech 2020 conference on 12 March 

Earlier this year, on 11 January, the Swiss Fintech Awards confirmed its 10 nominees - five fintechs under the 'early stage' category and five under the 'growth stage' category.

The former plays host to those fintechs with a Swiss connection, but which are yet to have a product-market fit; the latter is designed for fintechs with a Swiss connection and that have a successful product on the market, a functioning business model and clear growth aspirations. Those 10 nominations can be viewed here.
