5G Americas Endorses Bogdan-Martin for ITU Secretary General

5G Americas supports Doreen Bogdan-Martin’s candidacy to be the next ITU secretary-general, said a Thursday news release. ATIS supported her candidacy earlier, and other endorsements are expected (see 2201310055). “Bogdan-Martin has worked tirelessly as the Director of the Development Bureau to bring more women and girls into telecommunications, highlight the role of [information and communications technology] in achieving the UN’s Sustainability Goals, and bridge the digital divide for people around the globe,” said 5G Americas President Chris Pearson: “Her election would benefit the entire membership of the ITU, and their constituencies.”
