StackUp Partners

At StackUp our strength lies in our fierce independence - offering unbiased insights, not services.

We recognise though, that when clients need external help, they often ask us who to turn to.

That's why we've built a trusted community of independent experts.

These partners share our commitment to strengthening technology practices and leadership.

Independent CIOs/CTOs

We work with highly experienced Independent CIOs and CTOs—those with 20+ years of hands-on leadership in the technology field.

These experts provide our Independent Verification & Insights Service, helping our clients by validating their technology self-assessments and delivering personalised, actionable recommendations.

These Independent CIOs/CTOs bring unparalleled insight into technology strategy, risk management, and overall performance improvement. They play a critical role in helping clients navigate complex technology challenges, ensure compliance, and optimise their operations.

Service Providers

Our Service Provider Partners are independent professionals and companies that offer solutions across key areas covered by the StackUp assessment, including:

  • Innovation and Strategy
  • Staff and Training
  • Cloud and Network
  • Data Security and Privacy
  • Policies and Procedures
  • Risk Management
  • Vendor Management
  • Technology Performance

Each Service Provider must undergo rigorous due diligence to become an official StackUp partner. This ensures that every partner meets our high standards of quality and reliability. Once a provider is approved, StackUp operates independently and without preference for any specific supplier.

This means clients can trust they are being referred to the best fit for their unique needs.

Referral Partners

Our Referral Partner program is open to any organisation that interacts with Technology Leaders, C-Level Executives, Board Members, or investors in venture capital and private equity. This includes but is not limited to consultancies, advisory firms, and other professional service providers.

Referral Partners receive a unique referral code, which entitles them to a share of revenue generated from clients they refer for the first 12 months.

Additionally, clients using the referral code benefit from a discount on StackUp premium assessments.

This program helps Referral Partners generate extra revenue while helping their network of contacts.
