Discover Why We Are Passionate About Helping Indigenous Businesses

Rory, a proud Wiradjuri/Ngemba man, has been working in the IT industry for over 25 years. As his career grew, he realised he was getting further and further removed from his culture and community. This was not only impacting him, but also his young family. A jarring realisation occurred that so clearly demonstrated to Rory that as an employee, he had little control over who benefited from his efforts, so he decided to get back to his roots as a business owner. At the same time, he noticed that there was a gap in support for Indigenous businesses as most Indigenous owned IT companies focused on servicing government and corporate clients. Rory decided to do the work that makes him most happy, supporting mob with their tech needs. Since 2018, Rory has been steadily building his business and helping First Nations organisations uplift their tech and move away from tech support services that provided them with little value for money.

Our Mission: Our mission is simple yet profound—to be the trusted IT partner for all Indigenous organisations and to propel their businesses forward. We strive to enhance their technological capabilities by offering reliable, efficient, and cost-effective IT solutions. Through our services, we aim to ensure access to technology support doesn’t impede the running or growth of Indigenous organisations so that they can focus on doing the incredible work they do for our communities. We want to break the cycle of mob businesses getting ripped off for tech support and give them the kind of support that will elevate them well beyond any sort of digital divide! We know how important Indigenous organisations are for our communities, without them we would not be able to thrive.
