The IFTA welcomes all organizations and individual entrants
who have invested in financial technology to join. Entrants
can choose to submit their applications for any of the
categories subject to final approval by IFTA.
IFTA accepts global applications, meaning that there are no
district limitations in terms of the company or individual in
question. But the project(s) or solution(s) being highlighted
must include or be carried out within China’s Greater Bay
Area.
Each company may submit more than one application. This
can mean separate projects/solutions in the same category
from the same company, or one project/solution in multiple
categories. However, in the case of one project/solution being
submitted into multiple categories, the submission’s content
must be tailored for that specific category.
The project(s) or solution(s) must either be launched or with
updates specific within 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020
(both dates inclusive). A project which is under conceptual
planning stage and yet to launch to market is not allowed,
with the exception of the Star in the Making category for
students.
Previous awardees are welcome to join in the same category
or across categories for Awards recognition if their project(s)
or solution(s) have new updates/improvements within 1
January 2020 to 31 December 2020 (both dates inclusive).
Entrants are required to submit one form for each
application.
The decisions will be based on the judging criteria and panel.
Entrants cannot submit nominations for the Iconic Star(s)
Award. This class of award is only given to one project
chosen in the final round of assessment by the jury Panel.
The Organizing Committee reserves the ultimate right to
make final and binding decisions on the eligibility of all
applications.
The Organizing Committee reserves the right to not bestow
an award if the Jury Panel deems that no nomination has
earned an award.
Entrants are required to conduct a final presentation to the
Jury Panel once they are shortlisted. If finalists are unable to
present, they may be disqualified.
The decision of the Jury Panel shall be final for the award
assignments.
