AlgoDynamix.ai is in the mix for Best Technology Innovation, while the category for Best Application of Artificial Intelligence sees Fetch.ai nominated. Solidi is up for Best Digital Asset Exchange, while Best Accelerator, VC or Investor sees Accelerate Cambridge in a field of seven nominees.

“I’m delighted to see these organisations from Cambridge making it to the finals of the Digital Commonwealth Awards 2025 and I am looking forward to their ongoing success in this very dynamic world," said The Digital Commonwealth founder and CEO James Bowater.

"And I take great personal pride in seeing the awards gala allowing our great industries to throw the spotlight on incredible pioneers such as those we see representing Cambridge among the huge names on our shortlist of nominees."
