FF Awards 2021: Congratulations to all finalists and winners

!! Post FF Awards News !!

Two days after the first ever FF Awards show, hosted by the wonderfully funny Ed Gamble, we are still buzzing over how great the event was! From Liberty X’s amazing performance, to surprise guest Brian Blessed’s empowering (and definitely scripted) speech. The night was full of special moments and it was great to celebrate with you, our wonderful Fintech community, in person again.
