2025 Board of Directors Nominees

The 2024 Fiber Broadband Association board elections will occur on December 10th at the Annual Fiber Broadband Association Premier Member Meeting in Islamorada, Florida. The Fiber Broadband Association Board members are elected for three-year terms, staggered to allow openings for three Directors each year. Each Board member may only serve two consecutive terms. Beginning this year, we are expanding the Board by one Director each year for this year and the next two years – for an eventual total of 12 Directors.  As such, there are four Board of Directors positions open this year. A complete description of expectations for the Association’s Board of Director members can be found on the Board of Directors’ Responsibilities page.

Voting will take place during the Premier Member meeting on December 10, 2024.  If you do not plan to attend the Premier Member Meeting, you can submit an absentee ballot, which will need to be submitted by 3 PM EST on December 10th and should be sent to our FBA legal counsel at tcohen@kelleydrye.com. Absentee ballots will be sent to all designated company member representatives on November 20, 2024. All voting is by “sealed” ballot and will be kept confidential.
