Housing and fintech platform OneDome has been named as a finalist in three categories at the Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards 2026.
The company is shortlisted for the Scale Up Trailblazer Business of the Year and Growth Business of the Year awards.
Founder and CEO Babek Ismayil is also in contention for the Entrepreneur of the Year title.
OneDome joins almost 200 finalists competing across 20 categories, with the winners due to be announced at a ceremony in London on 10 November.
RAPID REVENUE GROWTH
Founded in 2016, OneDome brings together property search, mortgage and other services involved in buying and financing a home through a single platform.
The business reports revenue growth of more than 15,000% since 2022 and says it now arranges over $1.4 billion in mortgages each month through a network of more than 500 mortgage advisers.
Ismayil says: “OneDome has grown at an exceptional pace, but we still have more we want to achieve.
“Our ambition is to build the platform that transforms how people buy, finance and own their homes, and these nominations are a great recognition of the progress our team has made towards that goal.”
WINNERS ANNOUNCED IN NOVEMBER
The awards are headlined by Lloyds Bank, with ITV acting as media partner. This year’s finalists span businesses from across the UK.
Amanda Murphy, chief executive officer of Lloyds Business and Commercial Banking, says OneDome is bringing new ideas to the market and helping to support UK growth.
She adds: “Behind every successful business is a story of ambition, determination and innovation. Inspiring entrepreneurs backing themselves to succeed. That’s exactly what the Lloyds British Business Excellence Awards celebrates.”
The winners will be revealed at Grosvenor House in London before an audience of approximately 1,200 business leaders. Award winners will subsequently be invited to ring the opening bell at the London Stock Exchange and attend the programme’s reception at the House of Commons.
