The Wireless Infrastructure Association (WIA) reelected its current Board of Directors and extended the terms of its Officers for an additional year, following its quarterly meeting held in conjunction with Connect (X) in Fort Lauderdale, FL. The update centers on board and officer continuity for WIA’s governance.

During the quarterly meeting, the Board approved the WIA membership’s reelection of multiple directors to serve three-year terms. The Board also reappointed four additional directors and approved a one-year extension for the current slate of Officers.

The directors reelected to three-year terms were Ron Bizick (CEO, Vertical Bridge), Todd Boyer (CEO, TowerCo), Anthony Carlson (CEO, Array Communications), Brendan Cavanagh (CEO, SBA Communications), Ed Farscht (CEO, Diamond Communications), Cathy Piche (Executive Vice President-COO, Towers, Crown Castle), and Richard Rossi (Executive Vice President and President U.S. Tower Division, American Tower). The Board reappointed Daniel Agresta (President and CEO, APC Towers and APC Telecom Services), Tom Kane (CEO and Managing Member, NB+C), Dagan Kasavana (Founder and CEO, Phoenix Tower International), and Kelly Lazuka (CEO, Fullerton).

For the Officers, the Board approved an additional year with Cathy Piche as Chair, Richard Rossi as Vice Chair, Ed Farscht as Treasurer, and Brendan Cavanagh as Secretary. Patrick Halley, President and CEO of WIA, said, “WIA is fortunate to have a Board that brings deep experience, strong leadership, and a shared commitment to advancing wireless infrastructure across the country,” said Patrick Halley, President and CEO of WIA. Cathy Piche said, “I’m honored to continue serving as Chair alongside such an accomplished and dedicated Board,” said Cathy Piche. WIA’s board update followed the quarterly meeting held in conjunction with Connect (X) in Fort Lauderdale, FL, and information on the WIA Board of Directors remained available on WIA.org.
