Tech Leaders Forum is the premier networking and education event for technology vendors who communicate with the IT media sector. If you work with the tech media in Australia and New Zealand, you've got to be at this event.
 

It's established itself as the one event each year, where everyone takes a couple of days away from their regular schedules to focus on face-to-face communication and discussing the broader issues that are rising in the technology sector.
 

Running across two days, the event brings together 30 technology journalists to hear from, and network with up to  a dozen select, influential technology companies. The event has evolved over more than a decade, and now boasts a proven format that serves both the attending journalists and participating vendors.
 

In simple terms, the conference is broken into three main sessions which cover a cross-section of the IT industry. These topics are broken down into themes based on the topics being selected by participating companies, but recent years have featured sessions themed around issues like cloud computing, security, personal technology, communications, IT management, data centres, networking and productivity applications.
