The MSP Index Roadshow is set to return in 2026, kicking off in Melbourne on March 12th, before travelling to Brisbane and Sydney later in the year. The Roadshow brings together managed service providers, technology partners, and industry leaders for an afternoon of insight, discussion, and connection.
The Melbourne event will mark the first stop of the Roadshow and will bring together MSPs from across Victoria for an exclusive opportunity to engage with the latest data, trends, and perspectives shaping the managed services sector in Australia.
Built around the MSP Index - techpartner.news’ annual industry benchmark - the Roadshow provides attendees with a closer look at how MSPs are performing, where opportunities are emerging, and how the sector is evolving as it heads into 2026.
At the Melbourne event, attendees will hear discussion about:
- SMB profitability: with AI work unleashing a pandora's box of data issues, cyber governance demands, buyer motions shifting, and changes to Microsoft licensing, how do SMB-size IT partners maintain profitability in 2026 and beyond?
- MSP differentiation: MSPs are evolving to stand out from the crowd, whether through advisory practices, industry specialisation, M&A or other paths. We look at the pathways to differentiation in 2026 and beyond.
We will also give a brief introduction to, and take feedback about, the topic of our 2026 report: The Future of MSP systems.
The roadshow has been designed to deliver practical insights and meaningful conversations focused on the issues MSPs are navigating right now. Attendees can expect:
- Fresh data and trend analysis from the MSP Index
- Expert commentary from senior leaders across cybersecurity and managed services
- Practical guidance on navigating industry changes and building resilience in 2026
- Interactive demos showcasing innovative solutions from sponsors
- Networking with industry peers and sponsors from across Victoria
The Roadshow format is designed to balance data-driven insights with real-world perspectives, creating space for open discussion and peer-to-peer learning. With limited places available, MSPs and channel partners are encouraged to register their interest early.
