Today marks our final newsletter for 2025, and we would like to sincerely thank all our readers who have contributed to the continued growth of ChannelNews, which now attracts more than one million unique visitors each month.

We will return on January 5 with comprehensive coverage of CES 2026 from Las Vegas. The year ahead is already shaping up to be a significant one as we prepare to launch several new initiatives.

These include the introduction of Brand Noise, a new information and marketing business, and the rollout of BuildNews, a dedicated platform for the commercial and construction industries, where technology is playing an increasingly important role in modern building methods and materials.

Also launching in 2026 is ApplianceNews, along with a series of new digital publications, including Scope Appliances. This publication will be distributed to key decision-makers in the property sector, including developers, architects, and kitchen designers.

Scope Appliances will be available in two editions: a premium version showcasing high-end appliances, which will also be distributed to e&s customers following JB Hi-Fi’s acquisition of the company, and a second edition distributed to one million customers of The Good Guys.

The management of these publications will be led by April Ossington, who joins us after 12 years overseeing Grand Designs.

Also coming in the new year is Scope Residential, a new publication focused on the next generation of residential materials, design trends, and construction methods—from modular housing to multi-million-dollar apartment developments.

Thank you for your continued support throughout 2025. We wish you a very happy Christmas and a safe and enjoyable holiday period.
