Editor's Note

We felt very fortunate yesterday to kick off the first day of Pipeline 2026 a few metres from the beach on Hamilton Island. See some of the photos.

Thank you to the more than 200 people from the ANZ ICT channel that have joined us on the island this week, including business coaches, cyber consultants, M&A advisors, MSPs, cloud, cyber, biz-apps, data analytics and telco specialists, integrators, and hosting and data centre companies.

It's been a stunning environment for guests to learn from and connect with peers and industry experts, and to reset and recharge.
