About FastForward

FastForward is my independent publication and weekly newsletter focused on the technology shaping modern enterprises — and the startups building what comes next. I cover enterprise tech news and write commentary and analysis on AI, cloud, security, data and infrastructure, along with the strategic shifts facing large organizations.

I also publish in-depth profiles of CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, enterprise tech leaders and startup founders, digging into how products, platforms and ideas move from concept to real-world impact.

Editorial guidelines and transparency

FastForward exists because I believe thoughtful, independent writing about enterprise technology still matters. This site is my work, my reporting and my point of view. With that comes a responsibility to be clear about how I operate and how I make decisions.

This is my pledge to my readers:

Editorial independence
My editorial judgment is my own. I decide what to cover, who to talk to and how stories are framed. Coverage is never promised in exchange for access, money or favors.

Paid content disclosure
If I am paid to write a post, it will always be clearly labeled as such. No exceptions. You should never have to guess whether something is sponsored, underwritten or otherwise compensated.

Same standards, every time
Whether a post is paid or purely editorial, I apply the same journalistic best practices. That means fair reporting, clear sourcing, accuracy, context and the freedom to write honestly, even if that makes someone uncomfortable. Editorial judgment is not for sale.

Transparency about monetization
FastForward is free to read, but it is not free to produce. I’m actively experimenting with ways to monetize the site, which may include sponsorships, paid subscriptions or other clearly defined revenue models.

As I try new approaches, I commit to being open, honest and transparent about what I’m doing to make money and why. If something changes, readers will know.

A straightforward trade-off
I provide this content because I care about the topic and the audience. At the same time, this is my work, and it needs to be sustainable. Monetization is not a side hustle or a hidden agenda — it’s a practical necessity to keep FastForward going independently.

Respect for readers
I won’t sell reader trust for short-term gain. I won’t blur lines on purpose. And I won’t pretend this is something it’s not.
