While AT&T has not yet announced Inskeep’s replacement, a company representative stated that “the lines of business are covered,” indicating that the transition will be smooth. With over a dozen years of experience at AT&T, Inskeep began his career in sales before moving into the lab side of things at the AT&T Foundry operation near Dallas.

One highlight of Inskeep’s tenure at AT&T was securing a $10 million contract for the private 5G business at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. This contract demonstrated the growing interest in private wireless networking among companies in the wireless industry.

Inskeep’s move to Slalom comes at a critical time for AT&T, as private wireless networking continues to gain traction as a significant growth opportunity in the 5G landscape. AT&T CEO John Stankey acknowledged this during the company’s recent conference call, stating, “I actually think we’re on the front end right now of many businesses now understanding that wireless technology is their next strategic frontier… I think we’re going to see the same things start to emerge on the wireless side, and I think that’s just going to be growth.”

Inskeep’s departure from AT&T underscores the increasing interest and importance of private wireless networking across the industry. Competitors like Verizon and T-Mobile have also recognized this potential and discussed it as a major new growth opportunity. As companies explore the future of private wireless, experienced professionals like Inskeep will play a significant role in shaping and driving this emerging sector.
