Target decision-makers from channel partner companies.

techpartner.news is a leading independent source of news, insights and analysis for technology partner businesses in Australia. With a legacy spanning more than two decades, and a local team and management, our mission is helping tech partners succeed in business.

We serve senior decision makers in small, mid-sized and large technology businesses that work with Australian organisations,
including business and government.

These technology businesses include managed service providers (MSPs), system integrators, cybersecurity firms, cloud specialists, software developers, resellers, telecommunications providers and consultancies specialising in AI, automation, digital transformation, and other aspects of business technology.

We provide independent daily news through our newsletter, website and social media channels, produced by local journalists with deep knowledge of the Australian technology industry.

We also bring together technology firms to network and hear about business challenges and opportunities through our Pipeline conference, Fast50 Awards, Impact Awards, MSP Index, Channel Meets events, Kickstarter event, and the Benchmark Security Awards.

Our sponsors are companies wanting to work with, sell to, invest in, buy, finance, insure, provide legal and other advice to, coach and work in other ways with technology partners. We build and deliver sponsored reports, articles, roundtables and other events and activities for sponsors, and amplify sponsors’ events and other activities.

Reach your niche.
