Our Journey.
Macquarie Technology Group has a long history of being a challenger in the IT industry, with a commitment to differentiated customer service and innovation, continuously reshaping and reimagining.
The industry was dominated by the monopolist Telstra who called customers “subscribers”, tried to crush competition wherever it emerged and delayed the introduction of new technologies that would erode their profits. We were the challenger who fought for deregulation, to bring down prices and launch new innovative technology for our customers. We still are.
1992
Macquarie Telecom was founded. As an Australian entrepreneurial startup we focused on challenging Telstra, a monopolist hindering competition and delaying the introduction of new technologies.
Emphasis is placed on customer service and innovation, serving corporate customers with complex needs but lacking IT skills. Macquarie Telecom advocates for deregulation to lower prices and accelerate innovation. Within 10 years, Macquarie Telecom achieves a revenue of $200 million, showcasing its growth and success.

Why we exist.
We started the hard way with just the savings of our founders, our competitors were quite different from the beginning… Telstra inherited the world and Optus was the lucky child that had parents with virtually unlimited capital. Customers gave us the opportunity, we changed their service experience and we grew from zero to $200m in revenue in 10 years.
We have always been focused on one customer segment, the underserved corporate customer. Our customers have always had significant complexity in their needs, but lack the depth of IT skills. Our customers have always had significant successful businesses, but will always be lost as a rounding number for the Australian telcos and public clouds.
