THE TECHHEAD STORY

On the 22nd of November 2000, Tim Fussell founded Techhead Interactive from the second bedroom of his apartment in Dee Why on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. For the first year of operation Techhead was run as a part-time business whilst Tim retained full-time employment to keep the wheels turning. Every night and weekend was spent responding to email enquiries, preparing quotes, processing orders or invoicing for work completed.
 
Anthony Wood joined the company in 2001 as a director and shareholder, adding a wealth of IT experience and qualifications to the Techhead business.
 
In 2002, both Tim and Anthony stepped away from the comfort of full-time employment and braced themselves for the challenge of running a small business. In 2003 Techhead was successful in obtaining a Telstra Dealership making Techhead Interactive a complete information and communication technology company.
