Steve Garvey has more than 25 years' experience in corporate communications and has worked for a number of cutting edge businesses in the sector.  Most recently he was Commercial Director at Stream UK Media Services Ltd, an online video streaming business, prior to which he was CEO at World Television Group PLC, a leading European provider of corporate video communications.  He was also Director of Communications at Yes Television plc, a provider of video on demand and high-speed Internet to the television.  Since 2010 he has been a director of IVCA, the leading membership organisation for the corporate visual and events industry, and in June 2013 was appointed Chairman.  IVCA has since merged with Eventia to form EVCOM and Mr Garvey is expected to be formally appointed Deputy Chairman of EVCOM at the AGM on 19 June 2014.
