Steven Leonard Joyce (born 7 April 1963) is a New Zealand former politician, who entered the New Zealand House of Representatives in 2008 as a member of the New Zealand National Party. As a broadcasting entrepreneur with RadioWorks, he was a millionaire before he entered politics.[2] In 2008 he became Minister of Transport and Minister for Communications and Information Technology. He later became Minister of Science and Innovation, and then served as Minister of Finance and Minister for Infrastructure.
On 6 March 2018, he announced his resignation from politics, after losing his bid for the leadership of the party.[3] Joyce subsequently established a lobbying firm called Joyce Advisory, which developed close ties with the National Party.[4] In 2023, Joyce Advisory played a role in influencing the National Party's support for the University of Waikato to host New Zealand's proposed third medical school.[4][5]
