About Steve Van Leeuwen, President

Steve Van Leeuwen's real-world expertise and successful Internet marketing track-record provide an added dimension to CINIVA/Local PPC's business consulting services.

Steve has over fifteen years of experience in executive marketing and business development. Beginning his career with Roche Diagnostics as Worldwide Director of New Product Development and Specialty Markets, Steve was responsible for sales of over $100 million dollars. Products developed from his tenure with Roche, including specialized blood glucose instruments, have enjoyed sales of over one billion dollars. Steve has also served as shareholder and Vice President of Bainbridge Sciences, a Seattle-based biotechnology company that develops unique products for cancer detection. Following the successful sale of the company, he went on to serve as Worldwide Director of Marketing and Business Development For C.R. Bard’s (NYSE:BCR) diagnostic division. From this position he started an Internet marketing company called the Tysa Corporation.

Within three years, Tysa became the largest web-based automotive data collection enterprise on the West Coast. After selling Tysa to the Trader Publishing Company of Norfolk, Virginia, Steve founded Lifelines, a Web-based, health-services directory, which he also sold for a substantial return on investment. He has lead the team of CINIVA Systems to become the largest Web development company in Hampton Roads and, if all goes well, Virginia.

Steve is a graduate of Indiana University's School of Business.
