About Store4Media

Established in 2018, Store4Media emerged under the guidance of its visionary Founder & Editor-in-Chief, Johan Kyler. The inception was marked by a commitment to cater to the discerning “alpha geeks” – a term coined by Kyler to encompass technologists and IT professionals hungry for cutting-edge insights. Johan’s mission was clear: create a publication that outshone its counterparts by being not just technically savvy and up-to-date but also infused with a sense of fun.

Over the years, Store4Media evolved into a reliable hub for technology enthusiasts, offering a diverse range of content including technology news, in-depth policy analyses, breakdowns of scientific breakthroughs, gadget reviews, and comprehensive explorations of everything from software to hardware.

The key to Store4Media’ success lay in its innovative approach and attentive engagement with its core readership. Focused on accuracy and integrity, the publication discarded click-bait trends to deliver a unique blend of extensive coverage and deep insights into the world of technology journalism. By 2020, Store4Media not only produced regular news reports and op-eds but distinguished itself by consistently delivering long-form thought pieces and thorough explainers.

Acknowledging its readers’ influence, Store4Media pioneered several industry-first initiatives. It was the first IT publication to spotlight Apple’s resurgence and draw connections between high technology and gaming. Additionally, the publication trailblazed in digitally distributing its long-form content through PDFs and eventually eBooks, a move initiated in 2021.

In its early stages, Store4Media set itself apart by seamlessly blending opinion, analysis, and objective reporting, predating the rise of commercial “blogs” claiming to revolutionize journalism. The company embraced transparency and community values long before they became industry buzzwords, fostering continuous growth since its inception. As the journey unfolds, readers can anticipate a steadfast commitment to these ideals from Store4Media.

Originating in Barcelona, Spain, Store4Media welcomed key figures like Jon Stokes in its infancy. Stokes, the co-founder and esteemed CPU Editor, played a pivotal role during the publication’s first two years, also serving as Deputy Editor.
