From MSP Influencer:
Meet the creators helping inform, educate, and connect the MSP industry. The 2026 ForzaDash MSPInfluencer Media Impact Award winners are recognized for producing relevant content, sharing valuable insights, amplifying industry voices, and creating meaningful conversations across the MSP community.
This recognition honors the creators and platforms influencing the MSP industry through valuable content, education, insight, and community engagement. Get NIST-y’s ability to make cybersecurity and compliance topics approachable has earned it a place among this year’s honorees.
The ForzaDash MSPInfluencer Media Impact Awards recognize the creators, storytellers, interviewers, and thought leaders influencing the MSP community through relevant, consistent, and engaging content.
The MSP industry depends on trusted voices to explain complex issues, share practical experience, challenge conventional thinking, and connect people across the ecosystem.
From podcasts and newsletters to video, social media, and long-form interviews, these awards celebrate creators whose work informs the community and contributes to meaningful industry conversations.
Applicants provide information about their platforms, audiences, publishing activity, engagement, community participation, collaborations, and representative work.
The evaluation considers four primary areas:
Reach and Influence
The size and engagement of the creator’s audience, the platforms used to distribute content, and the consistency of publication.
Content Quality
The relevance, educational value, originality, and practical usefulness of the content produced for MSPs and the wider technology channel.
Industry Contribution
The creator’s interviews, collaborations, thought leadership, and influence on important MSP conversations.
Community Engagement
How actively the creator listens to, interacts with, and supports the MSP community, including collaboration with other creators and industry participants.
This approach recognizes creators who contribute genuine value — not those who merely publish frequently.
