Lord Mayor honours UK trailblazers driving growth, innovation and social impact
"Aspect Capital, Tide, Neighbourly and Guavapay were each awarded the prestigious Lord Mayor's Award, reflecting the breadth of the UK's fast-growing business ecosystem - from fintech and quantitative investment to social impact platforms and global payments infrastructure. The awards are part of the Lord Mayor's Growth Unleashed programme, which is designed to revive the UK's appetite for responsible risk-taking, channel institutional investment into high-growth sectors and ensure scale-up companies remain rooted in Britain."
"The programme includes flagship initiatives such as the Scale Up Showcase, connecting tech firms with investors, and the Mansion House Accord, under which 17 of the UK's largest pension providers have pledged to invest at least 10 per cent of their default funds into private markets by 2030. Speaking at the awards, King said: "These companies represent the very best of British innovation - forward-thinking, impactful and globally ambitious.""
