Financial services companies across the world demonstrated an outstanding ability to innovate and adapt to meet the rapidly changing needs of their customers.

The first edition of the Qorus Reinvention Awards recognized top innovators in the Middle East and Africa (MEA). The awards shone a spotlight on some of the products and services, and the creative teams behind them, that had propelled leading innovators ahead of their competitors. The fourteen finalists operated in a wide range of countries with very diverse markets.

That year's Qorus Reinvention Awards - MEA recognized offerings that displayed exceptional ingenuity in improving customer experience, distribution, ESG, operations efficiency, and payments. They also recognized the SME Bank of the Year and acknowledged a promising new arrival or an existing player that was transforming for the future in the New & Transformed Players category. The highlight of the awards was the selection of the MEA Innovator of the Year from among the finalists whose vision committed them to continuous innovation.

The winners of the awards were announced at an in-person awards ceremony in Dubai on 11 October.
