Thank you

The 2nd Finance Awards Wales are over for another year. We’d like to give a huge thanks and congratulations to all who entered, were shortlisted and of course the winners.

Thanks also goes out to our sponsors and suppliers, all of whom contribute hugely to the success of the awards. We couldn't do it without you!

We will be back for the 2020 awards later in 2019 so look out for the announcement so you can apply or nominate the best finance professionals in Wales.
