Largent Announces Retirement Plans

CTIA-The Wireless Association President and CEO Steve will not seek an extension of his current contract, which expires at the end of 2014.

The CTIA Board of Directors will immediately begin conducting a search for his successor. While the CTIA Board of Directors works to hire a successor, Largent will continue to lead the association and eventually work with that individual to ensure a smooth transition. Largent assumed the top job at CTIA in 2003, and the organization’s advocacy efforts to encourage a reasoned regulatory and legislative environment played a key role in the industry’s unprecedented expansion over the past decade.
