This week's Networking column features Rob Love, chief executive of award winning multimedia company Victoria Real.

Q: What is the best and worst thing about your company?

A: The talent of the people who work here, the culture that ensues and the passion for our business are some of the best things about us. The worst thing is we have to leave it and go home.

Q: Which other company would you have most liked to have worked for and why?

A: Apple Computers in the early days of Steve Jobs. Their drive and belief they would be changing the world because of what they were doing and how they were doing it is something that we are attempting to emulate.

Q: What was the best deal or business success you ever had?

A: Personally I feel proud of winning a £50,000 prize awarded by the DTI for our e-commerce software RealTrade in 1996. It was a lot of money for us back then and was the first recognition of our innovations. As a company, it would be building and designing the web site for Big Brother, the first of a new generation of interactive media projects Q: Your biggest business mistake?

A: As pioneers in a new industry we've made a lot, but you can't go forward without making them. If there was anything that I'm particularly disappointed about, it would be spending too much time giving away free knowledge to people.

Q: What is your favourite web site?

A: I'm always critical of the ones I access and that includes our own work - we should always be looking at achieving higher standards. There are few excellent web sites - the internet still has a long way to go.

Q: What will be the next big thing on the web?

A: The next big thing will be the web over wireless devices. Continued delays in rolling out fixed broadband connectivity will mean that broadband wireless applications will leapfrog fixed DSL and dominate the broadband content market.

Q: What is your favourite type of old-style media?

A: An odd question, but I still enjoy reading the paper regularly and going to the cinema (when I've got the time)!
