In a recent Executive Spotlight interview, ExecutiveBiz spoke with Lance Spencer, client executive vice president of defense for AT&T, to talk about his experience with the company as well as with the cybersecurity space and the intelligence community. He also discussed AT&T’s 5G-focused initiatives and its application to Department of Defense missions.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview with Spencer on his work with AT&T:
“Under my leadership, our teams are focused on educating DOD about the transformative connectivity and related capabilities AT&T offers and helping DOD find new, efficient, and effective ways to drive innovation and maintain global competitive advantage.
We focus on ensuring we deliver the best we can bring to DOD. That includes working with DOD to help them capitalize on the considerable investments we make in our networks. Over the past five years, from 2017 to 2021, we invested more than $135 billion in our wireless and wireline networks, including capital investments and the acquisition of wireless spectrum.”
