Meet Our President

Hi, I'm Barbara Qualmann, founder of HighTech Industry News (HTIN).

As president, I lead a dedicated team of news editors focused on delivering executive news briefs with actionable insights that matter most to corporate leaders and decision-makers.

We’re human editors who understand what matters.

My journey started at an ABC affiliate—chasing fire trucks and covering snoozer local government updates. But one year in, I happily pivoted to tech and science reporting, which eventually led me to cable, digital media, and into the world of OTT, streaming platforms, AI, and the evolution of how our world consumes content.

I've worked across various industries—tech (end-to-end connectivity), entertainment, gaming, regulatory, sustainability, energy, medical, science, healthcare, cable, and telecom. So I understand how fast things change and why identifying industry shifts early gives leadership a critical edge

After years monitoring and curating industry news, one thing has shown up across every sector I’ve worked in: leaders want straight-up, dependable news that’s quick to scan and easy to absorb. Accuracy, timeliness, and relevance from credible sources are non-negotiables. That’s the genesis of HighTech Industry News.

I launched HTIN in 2010 as legacy newsrooms were facing new competition—blogs, podcasts, LinkedIn, Twitter (X), Insta, Reddit, brand pressrooms, investor pages, and trade journals—each branding themselves as subject matter experts.

That’s when editorial judgment became a strategic asset—filtering out excess industry content to create executive news briefs with succinct insights executives could act on.

Whether it's monitoring breaking news in real time, exploring emerging markets, or analyzing the competition, HTIN's executive news briefs are designed to reflect the the client's mission and ever-evolving needs.

We’ve worked with global C-level executives, along with Investor Relations, Marketing, PR, Sales, and Engineering teams, to deliver news insights that influence the strategic direction company-wide.

If you’d like to know how we serve our individual clients, please email me directly at [email protected].

Look forward to meeting you and talking all things news!
