The Collaborators Shaping Tomorrow: HP Celebrates Australia’s 2025 Partner Excellence
HP honours Australia’s 2025 partner award winners driving hybrid work, AI-ready solutions and sustainable technology.

From AI-ready workplaces to more sustainable IT, HP Australia has named the winners of its 2025 HP Partner Awards, celebrating the collaborators helping Australian businesses stay connected, productive and secure through technology.
The energy was high at the W Sydney as HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) recognised Australia’s top channel performers. With over 250 guests in attendance, the evening highlighted the partners driving momentum across the Australian technology landscape. These organisations delivered standout results in innovation, customer impact and growth across 20 categories spanning distribution, devices, services, solutions and sustainability.
As Aussie businesses rethink the future of work, HP’s partners continue to deliver hybrid work solutions, AI-enabled tools and service-led experiences that enhance productivity, strengthen collaboration, and support employee well-being. This year’s winners showcase what’s possible when innovation and customer focus come together across the OneHP ecosystem.

“Each year, our partners set a new standard, and 2025 is no exception,” said Chris Hewlett, Senior Director of Commercial Channel at HP Australia. “Our partners are at the heart of HP’s success in Australia. They understand their customers, they know the local market, and they bring HP innovation to life in ways that make a real difference to how people work. We’re proud to recognise their achievements and grateful for the trust they place in HP.”
The 2025 winners stood out for turning customer needs into practical outcomes. They built workplaces that support hybrid and remote teams, paired devices with services to take pressure off IT teams, and introduced more circular and energy-conscious approaches to technology. Together, they highlight the strength of HP’s partner community across Australia.
On the night, several partners were recognised for standout contributions. ASI Solutions took home two of the night’s most competitive awards, Education Partner of the Year and PC Partner of the Year, underscoring its leadership in the local market. Ingram Micro was acknowledged for its breadth of impact with wins in Print Distribution and Marketing Excellence, while Dicker Data was recognised for both Distribution Specialisation and Poly Distribution Partner of the Year.
The room also paused for a special moment as Paula Fountain, National Practice Manager from Data#3 was inducted into the HP Hall of Fame, recognising her long standing contribution, leadership and influence across the channel.“Tonight I’m short of words. I have to say this brand and the people that represent the HP brand is a brand that I really care about and I love the community I work with.” Said Paula Fountain. “I love the people that I work with and I love my job. I feel like I’m a bit young to get this award and I want to say thank you to HP. It’s a great partnership and company to be representing every day that I get up,”
