Comarch Wins the "Innovation Excellence Award" at UNCHAIN Festival 2026, Boosting its Corporate Banking Presence in the CEE Region

We are proud to announce that Comarch has been officially honored with the prestigious "Innovation Excellence Award" at this year's UNCHAIN Festival 2026. This recognition comes at a perfect time, aligning with the execution of our intensified growth strategy across key regional markets, with a particular focus on the corporate banking sector.

The anniversary edition of the UNCHAIN Festival, held on June 17–18 in Oradea, Romania, has once again proven to be the leading platform for dialogue and collaboration within the financial and technology ecosystem of Central and Eastern Europe. The event brought together over a thousand leaders from more than 40 countries, including representatives from commercial banks, insurance companies, regulatory bodies, as well as fast-growing technology providers and fintechs.

The festival culminated in the glamorous UNCHAIN Awards 2026 gala, which honors organizations making the most significant contributions to the advancement of modern financial services. In the Industry Awards category, the jury recognized Comarch's role in shaping the future of the sector, presenting us with the Innovation Excellence Award.

The CEE Region and Romania at the Heart of Our Banking Strategy

This award holds special significance for us as we dynamically expand our footprint across Central and Eastern Europe. Romania stands out as one of the most strategic destinations on our growth map. We are consistently executing a plan aimed at delivering top-tier IT solutions to leading financial institutions, focusing on building a strong local team and ensuring deep technical integration with the largest players in the Romanian banking market.

"Our extensive experience in the CEE region, and specifically in Romania, has given us immense respect for the local business culture and the professionals working here. That is why we are doubling down on our commitment to this market. Romania is one of the fastest-growing segments in our portfolio, and we are fully determined to accelerate this growth trajectory even further," emphasizes Wojciech Mach, VP, Director in the Financial Services Division at Comarch.

As part of our expansion in the CEE region, we offer production-ready, easily deployable systems that address the core challenges of modern business:

• Comarch SME & Corporate Banking is an advanced platform that streamlines daily banking operations for enterprises. It has already been successfully implemented by leading players in the region.
• Comarch Loan Origination is a system that automates the entire credit lifecycle (from application to payout). It enables banks to shorten decision-making processes from weeks to just days by integrating AML procedures, scoring, and registry checks into a single screen view. The tool has been recognized in the prestigious Gartner Market Guide.
• Comarch Factoring is an end-to-end solution that digitalizes and connects factoring processes directly to banks' core systems. The maturity of this system is highlighted by the fact that Comarch's solutions currently process over 25% of the total factoring volume in Europe, and handle half of the market turnover in Poland alone.

Winning the "Innovation Excellence Award" at UNCHAIN Festival 2026 provides us with additional momentum to continue this journey, working alongside local experts to redefine corporate banking standards across Central and Eastern Europe.
