As Headline Sponsor of the Finance Connect Summer Awards 2026, we are delighted to welcome you to what promises to be another outstanding evening celebrating excellence across the specialist lending and asset finance industry.

The Finance Connect Summer Awards have established themselves as one of the industry’s most important and respected events, recognising not only commercial success, but also innovation, leadership, customer outcomes, collaboration and the people shaping the future of our sector.

At NETSOL Technologies, we are proud to support an industry that continues to evolve at pace through technology, data, AI and operational transformation. Across specialist lending and asset finance, firms are navigating significant change while continuing to deliver exceptional service, resilience and innovation for customers and partners alike. The achievements recognised tonight are a reflection of that commitment and ambition.

We are particularly proud to sponsor two of the evening’s flagship awards - Lender of the Year and CEO of the Year - which recognise organisations and leaders demonstrating outstanding vision, performance and impact across the industry.

Most importantly, the awards evening is an opportunity to celebrate the people and expertise behind the success stories. From lenders, brokers and technology providers to compliance, operations and leadership teams, the Finance Connect Summer Awards showcase the depth of talent that exists across this market.

Congratulations to all finalists and winners and we hope you enjoy the evening.
