TWN Communications announces Jonathan Adelstein as Executive Vice President,
Chief Strategy and External Affairs Officer
In this key operational position, Adelstein will work to secure
the capital and grants TWN will use to partner with rural electric
cooperatives to build world-class broadband networks in rural
America, along with driving regulatory and compliance policy. He
will assist TWN to capitalize on its prime position to grow the
company's infrastructure under the $42

With a proven track record of directing federal funding to
address rural community broadband infrastructure needs, Adelstein
brings a wealth of experience to the executive team.
"Jonathan is a seasoned leader with a deep understanding of the
telecom, rural and governmental sectors," said Colin Wood, CEO of TWN Communications. "We
anticipate benefiting from his knowledge, experience, and
connections. He also shares our longstanding commitment to
improving the quality of life in rural America through broadband
deployment."
"TWN provides the highest quality broadband in conjunction with
rural electric cooperatives – which fits squarely with my passion
for serving rural America," said Adelstein. "There is no better
business model for connecting remote areas than this partnership of
TWN's rural telecom expertise with electric coops' infrastructure
and connection to their communities. And there is no business
better positioned than TWN to win governmental support to bring
broadband where it's needed most."
Prior to joining TWN, Adelstein served as a Managing Director
with DigitalBridge, a successful asset manager focused on digital
infrastructure, including fiber and wireless broadband. Before
DigitalBridge, Jonathan served for ten years as the CEO of the
Wireless Infrastructure Association. His previous experience
includes serving as the head of the USDA's Rural Utilities Service,
seven years as an FCC Commissioner, and as a key staff member in
the US Senate.
Adelstein holds an MA in History and a BA with honors in
Political Science from Stanford University. He
attended Harvard Kennedy School at Harvard
University and served as a Teaching Fellow at Harvard and a Teaching Assistant at Stanford.
Jonathan's leadership and strategic vision will contribute to
TWN's ongoing growth and success.
