Between 1998 and 2001, Stephen Brewer, as CEO of Eircell, sparked an intense battle with Denis O’Brien’s Esat Digifone and, in the process, Ireland’s mobile economy was born. A little known fact about Brewer is that before he brought Ireland into the mobile revolution in the late 1990s, he played a definitive role in bringing Europe into the personal computing revolution in the 1980s, selling the first Apple computers after sparking up a close personal friendship with Apple’s co-founder Steve Jobs.
