Community data
Steven Pearce
Founder and CEO
Steven's passion for community data started almost a decade ago as a Music Inventory Analyst for the City of London, mapping the local music sector to improve collaboration and conducting economic impact analyses. This work expanded into broader economic and community development, with continued experience in municipal community data systems.

He comes to Cross-Econ with experience in the nonprofit, business, and government sectors and with significant networks in social impact, business, arts, communications, and media. Noted locally and nationally for community development, Paul was recently awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal for his "contributions to advancing the voluntary sector and commitment to creating positive change in our communities."
