innovation sponsor.

Limited to one spot per year, our Innovation Sponsor dedicates support to new advice firms driving change through AI, technology and innovation. Their sponsorship is committed to delivering the New Business programme.

Two annual New Talent Sponsors specifically sponsor fresh talent in financial services, setting the criteria for the New Talent cohort they fund. The full sponsorship is dedicated to delivering our New Talent programme and it's continuing development.

This slot is designed for those firms that support our mission of building a thriving financial services industry by giving the end clients choice, who want to contribute to the overall impact, rather than a specific initiative.
