About Techstrong Group

Our Mission

Serving the Communities That Build the Future

We believe technology communities are the engine of progress. When practitioners share knowledge, challenge assumptions, and build on each other's work — the whole industry advances. Techstrong Group exists to power that exchange.

Our mission is simple: serve global IT communities with the content, research, events, education, and professional development they need to do their best work. And help the technology companies building the tools of the future reach the practitioners and leaders who matter most to them.

We don't just cover technology from the outside. Our editorial teams are deep insiders — former practitioners, analysts, and community leaders who have earned the trust of the communities they serve. That trust is our foundation.

Our History

From MediaOps to Techstrong

2013

Founded as MediaOps

Alan Shimel and the founding team launched MediaOps with the vision of building practitioner-led media properties for the emerging DevOps community. DevOps.com was the flagship — and quickly became the internet's definitive destination for DevOps practitioners.

2016–2019

Network Expansion

Security Boulevard and the Security Creators Network joined the portfolio, establishing a powerful cybersecurity media presence. Cloud Native Now followed as Kubernetes and containers redefined infrastructure. The network approach — multiple focused properties sharing infrastructure and audience — proved its power.

2020

Techstrong TV Launches

As the world moved to remote-first operations, Techstrong TV emerged as the premier live technology streaming channel — with the Techstrong Gang daily roundtable becoming a beloved fixture for thousands of daily viewers.

2021–2022

Rebranded as Techstrong Group

MediaOps became Techstrong Group — a new name reflecting the company's expanded mission and community. New properties launched: Techstrong.ai, Platform Engineering, DigitalCxO, and Techstrong.IT extended the network's reach across every key discipline in enterprise technology.

Late 2024

Joined The Futurum Group

Techstrong Group joined The Futurum Group in late 2024, combining Techstrong's massive media reach and engaged communities with Futurum's world-class research and analyst practice. The result is a uniquely powerful platform where content, community, and intelligence converge to help technology companies grow. Techstrong Semi is on the horizon.

How We Work

What We Stand For

Editorial Independence

Our editorial coverage is vendor-neutral and practitioner-driven. Advertisers cannot buy editorial favor. This independence is the source of our credibility and audience trust.

Community First

We are part of the communities we serve — not observers from the outside. Our editorial teams include practitioners, analysts, and community builders who live in these disciplines.

Always On

Technology doesn't take weekends. Neither do we. Techstrong TV streams live Monday through Friday. New content publishes daily across all seven editorial sites. Our team is always at work.

Data-Informed

Whether it's audience intelligence, intent data, or research insights from the Futurum Group — our work is grounded in evidence. We help advertisers and partners make decisions that are backed by data.

Global Reach

Our audience spans the globe. Technology is a global industry, and our properties serve practitioners and decision-makers in organizations of every size, in every geography.

Inclusive Community

Our community programming reflects our commitment to building a technology industry that is welcoming, equitable, and representative of the world it serves.
