Filled with over **100 companies** from **20 different sectors**, rankingCoach gave an outstanding performance to its audiences from all over the world in this final round.   **In order to partake in the EVC Finals, rankingCoach had to meet some criteria first.** The first is to pass the application phase, and once that is done a company is then eligible to deliver their pitch at a Venture Forum for their region. In particular, **rankingCoach was welcomed at the North-Rhine - Westphalia Venture Forum, where only the top 24 get to move onto the finals**. In the end, it was a wonderful experience for all of the members of rankingCoach who got to go to both events, and even be considered for the NRW Venture Forum. Most of all though, **we were very pleased to be able to spread our vision of helping all SMEs be successful online**. #### The Award-Winning App for Digital Marketing - ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_left.svg) [Digital Champions Award Winner 2020](https://www.rankingcoach.com/en-us/news/digital-masterclass-rankingcoach-wins-digital-champions-award-2020) ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_right.svg) - ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_left.svg) [Focus Growth Champion Winner 2021 + 2020](https://www.rankingcoach.com/en-us/news/business-growth-champions-2020-rankingcoach-makes-the-list-once-again-) ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_right.svg) - ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_left.svg) [Global Digital Excellence Awards Winner 2020](https://globaldigitalexcellenceawards.com/2020-winners/) ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_right.svg) - ![](https://blog.rankingcoach.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/RankingCoach_April2021/images/laureal_left.svg) [Deloitte.
