Along with rock legend Peter Gabriel, Steve is an investor in We7 and also CEO. 

The We7 service will deliver a free, ad-supported music experience to consumers.  The revenue generated by advertising ensures that artists receive royalties for making their songs available, whilst consumers will receive and share DRM-free music, legitimately making it an attractive proposition for advertisers, artists, and music fans alike.

Steve has a passion for music, but apart from his early days as a DJ, his real success to date has been in the computer industry, an industry he has been in since age 14 (when PCs were still science fiction). 

Prior to We7, Steve was Co-Founder and CEO of SurfControl, where he developed the company's vision and architecture, and took the company public on the London Stock Exchange.  He generated hyper-growth to create a successful global operation with profitable annual billings exceeding $100 million. SurfControl was sold for over $400m in 2007.

Steve has been recognised by many prestigious business awards, including: IOD Director of the Year, Technology CEO of the Year, Technology Entrepreneur of the Year, and Techmark Personality of the Year.
