Media-Wize

Media-Wize provides public relations, media training, messaging, crisis and incident media training and management, along with video, podcasts, webinars, event hosting and content delivery.

We recommend beginning the process by training and coaching media spokespeople so they are well prepared to tell engaging stories. Our unique approach enables us to uncover hidden gems, angles and stories that other PR agencies typically miss.

Our services are flexible and can be structured to suit your needs. We work with startups, scale-ups, unicorns, enterprise level organisations and companies preparing to launch in the Australian market.

In collaboration with two of our clients, Media-Wize achieved recognition winning CRN’s ‘Best Editorial’ Award 2021 with Tesserent and was a finalist in ‘Best Publicity’ at The Australian Business Book Awards 2021 for our work on The Secure Board Book. In 2023 Anthony Caruana & Media-Wize were finalists in the IT Journalism Awards ‘Best Media Relations’ category as voted by Australian IT journalists.

What our clients say about Media-Wize

“We were unanimously impressed with the cofounders of Media-Wize and the level of passion and enthusiasm they bring to their work. Media-Wize offers a senior, hands on, highly experienced team with a solid understanding of global PR accounts, tech, business, marketing and the startup ecosystem.”

Clare Dorrian, CMO, SugarCRM
“We engaged Media-Wize to deliver crisis and disaster management media training for the AusCERT team. As part of this Media-Wize took our senior leadership team through practical mock interview scenarios on real-world use cases. We found the training insightful and incredibly helpful to ensure that we are prepared to handle the media in the event of any incident affecting us or our members. The team at Media-Wize have an unparalleled understanding of how to work with the media, mitigate risks and to optimise messaging. We have no hesitation recommending them to any organisation.”

Bek Cheb, Business Manager, AusCERT.
“In the media world where headlines and deadlines are 24/7, Media-Wize’s precision allows for a client to have peace of mind. I can always count on Media-Wize to navigate news messaging accurately and provide consistent and timely updates.”

Erin Victor, Corporate Communications Manager Director, Kaspersky
“As the founder of a company delivering these critical solutions to young Australians, it was important for me to find the right partner to help me tell our story. From the very first meeting it became obvious to me just how much Media-Wize stood out from their peers and I haven’t looked back. They so fundamentally get my business and its purpose and know exactly how to bring our value proposition and promise to life.”

Renata Sguario, Founder and CEO of Maxme and chairman of Future First Technology (ASX:FFT)
“Although we have nearly 20 years assisting companies with their cybersecurity requirements, we are a new brand, or as we like to joke, Australia’s best kept secret in cybersecurity. That said we don’t plan to stay a secret for long and Media-Wize are a key part of that strategy. We chose Media-Wize for their deep expertise in IT – enabling us to all get on the same page at speed, and for their demonstrated agility to respond in a sector that makes headlines almost daily.”

Alex Belcher, Marketing Manager, Tesserent, (ASX:TNT)
