Steve Young

Pro Football Hall of Fame Quarterback and Co-Founder of HGGC

Steve Young enjoyed a distinguished professional football career that extended over fifteen years in the NFL, predominantly with the San Francisco 49ers. During this period, he garnered numerous accolades, including the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl XXIX, the titles of Sports Illustrated and Sporting News' Player of the Year from 1992 to 1994, and the NFL's Most Valuable Player for the years 1992 and 1994. In 2005, he was honored with induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, marking the first time a left-handed quarterback received such recognition. Regarded as the highest-rated quarterback in NFL history, Steve Young stands as the lone signal caller in league history to clinch four consecutive NFL passing titles.

Beyond his NFL career, Mr. Young has achieved success in various ventures. Notably, he served as a member of Northgate Capital, LLC, the general partner of Northgate Capital Partners, L.P. Additionally, he founded and chaired the Forever Young Foundation Charity and currently holds the position of Managing Director and Co-founder of HGGC. Steve's most remarkable victories, however, transcend the public sphere, reflecting deeply personal triumphs achieved away from the spotlight.
