Multimedia Technology

Multimedia Technology has established itself as one of Australia's Premier National IT Distributors representing many of the leading IT/AV/Software and Communications vendors from Australia and around the world.

Channel partners want a responsible distributor who understands their business and is willing to go the extra distance to contribute to their success.

With 18 years of experience Multimedia Technology has listened to our partners and has used these relationships to fine tune our model bringing significant improvements across all aspects of our business. This translates into a model which is easy to communicate with, responsive to our partners needs, competitive and market aware. Our company slogan “ask Multimedia” is indicative of our open door philosophy where everyone in the company is accessible and accountable.

At Multimedia Technology we don’t take our position for granted and our strong relationships with vendors and channel partners has helped position us to become “best at” graphic solutions, ruggedized and business mobile computing, communications and networking solutions, display and a wide range of lifestyle solutions such as digital and still cameras, projectors and Shintaro’s wide range of IT/AV solutions and accessories.

As Australia’s leading graphics card supplier, Multimedia Technology is the National distributor for Leadtek, Quadro, XFX, Matrox Graphics, Sapphire Technology and ATI workstation providing the widest range of graphics solutions available on the market today. While market share varies, each vendor has become the number one choice for graphic cards within their market segment. As a result Multimedia Technology has become known as the preferred distributor for all graphic card environments including gaming, workstation, video editing, CAD and 3D design.

Panasonic Toughbook and Multimedia Technology have an outstanding relationship which is an example of what you can achieve when a distributor and vendor work together as one voice in the market. While economic challenges impact IT spending Toughbook has continued to grow market share and is poised to offer exciting new models creating new market opportunities which will further consolidate this leadership position.
