We’re delighted to share that bigspark has been shortlisted as a finalist for The Lloyds AI Game Changer of the Year Award at the 2026 Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards — one of 20 categories spanning almost 200 finalists shortlisted from a record field of entries across the UK economy.

The award recognises businesses using AI to drive genuine commercial and operational change. Our shortlisting reflects the work we do every day engineering the trusted data foundations that power AI across the UK’s leading financial institutions — from NatWest to the FCA — helping banks, insurers and regulators replace black-box systems with responsible, cloud-native AI they can own, govern and scale.

Recognised among Britain’s best

This nomination caps a strong year for bigspark, having ranked #48 in The Sunday Times Top 100 and continued to build our track record delivering responsible, regulator-ready AI for Tier 1 banks, insurers and government departments.

What’s next

Winners will be announced at the awards ceremony in November 2026 at Grosvenor House, London, in front of the UK’s business community. We’ll share the result here as soon as it’s confirmed.
