View company profile

We are Packt, a leading global publisher of technical learning content. Since our founding in 2004 in Birmingham, UK, our mission has been to help the world put software to work in new ways. We achieve this by delivering effective learning and information services to IT professionals, developers, and anyone passionate about technology. We believe that software has a profound impact on the world, and that knowledge is the fuel that runs it. Our goal is to increase the shared value of deep technical knowledge, and we are proud to work with some of the most brilliant technical minds and ground-breaking creators on the planet to make this a reality. Over the years, we have published over 7,000 books and videos, providing actionable knowledge that empowers professionals to get the job done, whether that involves mastering an emerging technology or honing skills in more established tools.

Our commitment to the tech community goes beyond just publishing. We have a long-standing tradition of supporting open-source projects, and through our Open Source Project Royalty scheme, we have donated over $1,000,000 to help numerous projects flourish and become household names. Our innovative business model, which includes print-on-demand and direct sales, allows us to profitably support niche topics that traditional publishers might overlook. This ensures that IT professionals have access to a wide spectrum of knowledge, from Big Data and Cybersecurity to AI and Machine Learning. We foster a people-centric culture that encourages creativity, innovation, and an entrepreneurial spirit. This empowers our employees, authors, and customers to collectively shape the future of technology and publishing. We are constantly exploring new ways to improve the learning experience, developing new products and subscription services to meet the evolving needs of tech professionals who value depth, focus, and flexible delivery.
