Gary Enloe, MTA's Vice President of Network Planning and Operations, was recently honored on the main stage at NTCA's RTIME as the first-ever NTCA Innovator of the Year. This recognition is for Gary's development of a tool that simplifies the process of defining parameters required to deliver broadband to our members — allowing connectivity to be provided reliably and at maximum speeds. Gary's dedication and innovation make MTA better equipped to expand reliable broadband access to rural areas where it is most needed.

We remain committed to providing quality services to our members and expanding access to reliable broadband in remote areas. As the leading technology provider in Alaska, we know our work is constantly evolving – and never done. We've been committed to serving the communities we live in for 70 years and are always strengthening our network to deliver new solutions and empower our members to live more connected lives today and for generations to come.

The NTCA eXcellence Awards recognize broadband providers who have exceeded expectations to support their customers and community members and to advance communications services in rural America.
