Our Team

The Gold Coast Torch consists of a small, local team that work together to create compelling news content that provides value for the community.

Finn Johnson

Officially founded and funded by tech entrepreneur Finn Johnson in October 2024, Finn operates media publishing startup Torch Corp (The Gold Coast Torch, The Brisbane Torch). He has a passion for solving complex problems with modern innovation. Without any investors or shareholders in Torch Corp, it ensures that everything done on this platform has our members' best interests at heart. With a keen eye for web development, innovation, media, marketing, SEO, paid social media, and content creation, Finn figured it would be a valuable asset for the city to have a media news platform that is primarily owned and operated by the local people who contribute. As an old-skool entrepreneur with high hopes for Torch Corp, he aims to bring positive change to the city of the Gold Coast.
