Steven is AI Workplace Lead at Microsoft, based in the Teams Engineering organisation (Calling, Meetings & Devices) at HQ — sitting at the forefront of how AI is reshaping Teams and the future of how we collaborate and meet. Over 11 years at Microsoft, he has worked across EMEA to help organisations turn AI ambition into real workplace outcomes — strategy, adoption, and the operating models that make new ways of working stick. His contributions to innovation and business impact have been recognised twice with the Microsoft Champion Award.

Before Microsoft, Steven spent a decade at Intel in sales and marketing roles, contributing to the launch of landmark products including Pentium 4, Centrino, and Core — experience that shaped his view of how technology transitions actually play out inside organisations.

Between and alongside his roles in big tech, Steven has founded and scaled multiple startups, secured funding, and advised emerging ventures on strategy and growth — giving him a builder's perspective to balance the enterprise lens.

Today, he is also the founder of Fronterio.com, which helps companies accelerate AI adoption and design what it takes to become a Frontier Firm — rethinking how work gets done when humans and AI agents collaborate every day.

His career has spanned Europe, the Middle East, North America, and Asia, giving him a global perspective on how leaders, teams, and technology come together to build the workplace of the future.
