Our partners
At StackUp our strength lies in our fierce independence - we provide unbiased insights, not services.
However, when our clients need external support, they often ask us who to turn to.
That is why we have built a trusted network of independent experts.
Our partners share our commitment to strengthening technology practices and leadership, ensuring organisations receive the right expertise when they need it.

Referral partners
Strengthening networks while creating value
Our referral partner program is designed for organisations that engage with Technology Leaders, C-Level Executives, Board Members, and investors in venture capital or 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 from clients they refer during their first 12 months.
Additionally, clients using the referral code benefit from a discount on StackUp premium assessments.
This program enables referral partners to generate additional revenue while delivering value to their professional network.
