He describes himself as being - not a tech guy - but the business guy of the tech world, who's job is to gather capital and build the teams that can implement the projects.

Steve says that the best satisfaction comes from getting individuals achieve their potential. For that he has created a series of talks where entrepreneurs come and share their experiences, ideas, networks and possibilities. In these talks and workshops he offers feedback and advice, and declares to have a "love for problem-solving" when it comes to entrepreneurship.  In the feature, Steve also mentions his roots, his values and principles growing up, as well as the mentors who contributed to his evolution as a professional and as a person.
