About

Supporting the stories of the people, companies, and communities shaping the future of technology

At 5V Media, we believe the right story can build movements, open doors, and spark real change.

We’re the team behind original content initiatives like Playback Pioneers, The Media & Entertainment Mixer, Women Behind the Screen, and The IoT Podcast - shining a spotlight on the people, technologies, and ideas shaping tomorrow.

But we don’t just tell our own stories. Through our media solutions offering, we also work directly with partners — from startups to global tech brands — to help them better connect with their audience, define their voice, and accelerate growth. Whether it’s a thought leadership series, a branded campaign, or a tailored video or podcast format, we deliver creative that cuts through.

As for the name? It's inspired by a quote from Sir Isaac Newton:

"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."

We live by that philosophy. By working together and building on each other's ideas, we go further, faster - and we make sure the right people hear about it.

What we stand for

Inclusive

Fight against biases

The more diverse and inclusive our content is, the more experiences, and points of view we’ll hear. If we want to hear new ideas, we need to listen to everyone. And to do that, we need to fight against our biases.

Sustainable

Put the planet before profit

If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Sure, no single person can fix the planet by themselves, but we can make sure that every decision we make takes us one step closer.

Attentive

Listen before you talk

We have two ears and one mouth. So, we should listen twice as much as we speak. When we listen, we can discover new ideas and learn how to improve. We’re committed to listening to our subscribers and ensuring we deliver content that matters.

Authentic

Follow through with ideas

It’s easy to say you’re going to do good things. It’s not so easy to actually do them. So, we follow through. We walk the walk, and we never just pay lip service. That includes making sure we always follow these values when building our content.

Considerate

Put people first

People are at the heart of our content. We aim to give the people who need to be heard a platform to share their ideas and showcase their impact on this world.
