About theFreesheet

theFreesheet is a business technology news publication serving professionals across the UK and beyond who need to understand how technological developments affect their organisations and industries.

Starting as an independent publication focused on the intersection of technology and business, theFreesheet covers the companies, innovations, regulatory changes, and strategic decisions that matter to decision-makers navigating digital transformation.

Our readers include technology executives, business leaders, investors, software developers, and professionals working across sectors where technology drives competitive advantage. We’re also read by government policy professionals, consultants, and other technology specialists who need reliable coverage of business technology developments.

We cover enterprise software, artificial intelligence applications, corporate technology strategies, regulatory developments, funding activity, and emerging technologies with commercial potential. Beyond the core business technology beat, we report on the broader implications of technological change, including environmental impact, workplace transformation, and regulatory responses to emerging technologies.

Our editorial team maintains independence from commercial pressures, with clear separation between news content and promoted material. We focus on developments that affect how businesses operate rather than consumer technology trends or speculative announcements.

theFreesheet exists because technology adoption in business continues accelerating, creating opportunities and risks that require informed coverage. We track these developments and explain their implications for professionals who need to make strategic decisions about technology implementation.
