His unparalleled understanding and insight into 5G mobile networks, networking operations, and telecom engineering will provide our teams with invaluable wisdom that will allow us to not only grow our current business but expand to meet our company goals”.
Recently retiring after a 37-year career at telecom giant AT&T, most notably as the President of AT&T Networks Engineering and Operations, Mr. Mair was responsible for launching the first standards-based mobile 5G network, running AT&T’s next-generation wireless and wireless networks, as well as launching the first secure communications platform used nationwide for U.S. Public Safety workers, including EMS, police, firefighters and first responders.

Mr. Mair stated: “The telecom industry is in an age of flux as more and more companies embrace the inevitable digital era. Fortress is at the forefront of these changes. Their services not only allow companies to deploy new digital services faster, they also provide critical infrastructure support to ensure their legacy platforms remain ready and available at all times. I am excited to begin a new journey with their team as a member of their Board.”
