CRN (U.S.)

CRN began its journey on June 7, 1982, as a publication named Computer Retail Week, aimed specifically at computer resellers. It was soon rebranded as Computer Reseller News. Initially published by CMP Media in Manhasset, New York, CRN was later acquired by United Business Media (UBM), a London-based company, in a deal worth $920 million. The publication eventually adopted the acronym CRN and continues to be available in various countries, including Australia, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, India, Poland, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Currently, the UK edition of CRN is managed by Incisive Media, while The Channel Company oversees the U.S. version.
