RADNOR, PA / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2022 / BM Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American:BMTX), one of the largest digital banking platforms and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) providers, announced that Luvleen Sidhu, Chair, CEO, and Founder, was selected as a finalist in the Women in Technology category for the Fintech Futures Banking Tech Awards. Now in its 23rd year, the Banking Tech Awards are the hallmark of excellence for companies and individuals in banking and fintech.
An independent panel of judges in the financial services industry from organizations such as IBM, Morgan Stanley, Green Dot, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), EY, Bank of America, and the University of Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance chose Sidhu as a finalist. Other companies and organizations represented as finalists in this category include FIS, Numerix, OpenFin, Inc., and more.
As a woman in a male-dominated industry, Sidhu was the youngest female to ever take a company public at the time of its listing. Under her leadership, BM Technologies (BMTX) is one of the first publicly traded neobanking fintechs. In addition to making banking more accessible, Sidhu was a trailblazer in the industry when she shifted BMTX's direction to a B2B2C approach, and started implementing BMTX's award-winning BaaS model. BMTX was a first-mover in the BaaS space before it became the industry buzzword it is today.
'It is an honor to be included among this group of inspirational technology leaders as a finalist,' said Luvleen Sidhu, Chair, CEO, and Founder of BMTX.
The Women in Technology award is a prized acknowledgement of the demonstrated skills, leadership, vision, inspiration, and dedication to the industry's betterment.
