Scott Agnew was appointed president of FirstNet at AT&T (NYSE: T), a Dallas, Texas-based telecommunications company where he has served for over two decades now, GovCon Wire has learned.
Agnew will succeed Jim Bugel, who is retiring from AT&T on Sept. 1 after more than 31 years with the company. Bugel assumed the FirstNet president post in October 2022. Prior to the appointment, he led strategy, policy and implementation efforts for all federal, state and local public safety initiatives and the FirstNet Response Operations Group.
On the other hand, Agnew was vice president of FirstNet and public sector mobility. He held a number of public sector-focused roles during his 24 years of experience at AT&T, including area VP, director of business development and global account manager.
He will now be responsible for all areas of the FirstNet program, building on his extensive experience in leading mobility and wireline corporate initiatives.
“As America’s Public Safety Network, FirstNet is leading the way for first responder communications. I am proud to lead this team as we continue to support first responders during disasters and everyday emergencies,” said Agnew.
