TechCentral is a Johannesburg-based business technology news organisation covering South Africa’s ICT economy. Founded in 2009 by Duncan McLeod, it reports for senior IT and business decision makers on telecoms and broadband, enterprise software and cloud, cybersecurity, fintech, and technology shifts in energy and broadcasting. The newsroom publishes daily news, analysis and opinion, and extends its reporting through interviews with industry leaders on the TechCentral Show.
The publication is known for a B2B focus and steady audience growth, and emphasises editorial independence with a clear separation between editorial and advertising. In April 2025, Publishared acquired TechCentral’s parent, NewsCentral Media; McLeod stayed on as editor-in-chief and the title continues to operate from Johannesburg while expanding its editorial and commercial offerings.
Recent coverage has ranged from mobile broadband rules and payments innovation to rooftop solar and data‑centre buildouts, reflecting a blend of enterprise IT and telecoms reporting. Through specialist interviews and targeted events, TechCentral serves South African boardrooms seeking credible ICT intelligence.
