The strict selection committee includes some of the world's most talented growth investors backing European Tech businesses, which sift through more than 300 leading and fast-growing businesses. Companies are analysed based on revenue growth, innovation potential, quality management team and pedigree of excellence (quality of backers, advisory board, past awards won and top-sector listings), said a statement.

Nuno Sebastiao, CEO and co-founder of Feedzai, said: "Being selected for the Tech Tour Growth 50 means that we are global-ready. By having major customers on every continent, we have proven that great technology can transcend geographical borders. A big part of our success comes from building a diverse culture that attracts the best employees, many of whom rank in the top 1% of data science talent and can only be found in Europe."

William Stevens, CEO, Tech Tour, added: "We are delighted that Feedzai will be joining the Tech Tour Growth 50 for the second year in a row.
