Gigapower Appoints Toni Broberg to Vice President of External Affairs

Experienced Public Affairs Leader to Oversee Strategic Engagement of Local, State, and Federal Stakeholders

Gigapower, a joint venture between AT&T and a fund managed by Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP), a part of Blackrock with the goal of expanding high-speed, reliable fiber internet through open-access networks, has appointed Toni Broberg to the position of Vice President of External Affairs.

In her new role, Broberg will lead Gigapower’s strategic engagement with local, state, and external stakeholders and support the company’s broadband infrastructure expansion and public policy initiatives. She will also work as a member of the leadership team to drive the company’s overall strategic growth initiatives.

“Toni’s talent and passion for her work become immediately apparent the moment you meet her,” said Bill Hogg, Gigapower CEO. “She brings a combination of policy insight, leadership experience, and deep knowledge of the broadband and telecommunications space that makes her an invaluable addition to the team. We’re delighted to have her support as Gigapower works to build the digital infrastructure that communities across America need.”

Prior to joining Gigapower in 2023, Broberg served as President of the Desert Southwest Region for AT&T, overseeing operations and external affairs across Arizona and New Mexico. She brings a wealth of public sector experience to her corporate leadership, having served in the Obama White House as Deputy Associate Director for Communities at the Council on Environmental Quality. She also held the role of Senior Advisor for Congressional Affairs at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and has extensive experience navigating complex government affairs at the local, state, and federal levels.

“We are at a defining moment in this country for how we connect communities, and I see Gigapower as the leading driver of this effort,” said Broberg. “What excites me most about this new role at Gigapower is the opportunity to contribute to work that truly matters alongside a team of exceptionally smart professionals who are deeply committed to the mission. There is a strong sense of purpose within this organization, and I am proud to be part of it.”
