Marketers in B2B FinTech
THE FINITE
FinTech is slowly but surely challenging and influencing the majority of financial services companies, and the marketers at the helm of these organisations have a big part to play in this innovation.
That’s why we want to recognise the best of the best in FinTech – those marketing leaders accelerating, not just their organisation, but the industry forward. Employing talent, hard-work and great teams, these marketers will receive more than just a trophy, with invitations to exclusive senior networking groups and executive visibility across the FINITE network via our podcasts and events.
So, how is this measured? For this year’s list we’ve analyzed numerous data points via Crunchbase and Google Trends to ascertain each marketer’s impact on a business, alongside their personal achievements.
