Steve Baxter is Queensland's Chief Entrepreneur for the next 12 months.

 He's certainly at the top of his game, having built and sold many six figure businesses (read more here) and mentored many others.

He's been involved in Channel 10's Shark Tank Australia for the last three seasons.

After a bruising exchange with a politician who challenged him on exactly how much he knew about business (a lot actually- he's quite good at it), he engaged a PR firm to raise his profile and try and help hone his public speaking skills.

And in the next 12 months, he wants to shine a spotlight on the strength of rural and regional Queensland.
