Speaker Profile
Brett Lindsey has grown Everstream from a 2,500-route-mile fiber network to more than 25,000 route miles of fiber. In 2018, Brett facilitated the sale of Everstream to AMP Capital, a global investment manager headquartered in London. With this investment, Everstream expanded its network into five new markets, including Chicago, Columbus, Indianapolis, Milwaukee and St. Louis, and closed strategic acquisitions in Detroit, Indianapolis and St. Louis. In 2016-2017, Brett more than tripled the size of the organization within less than 12 months with two Michigan-based acquisitions. Previously as Chief Operations Officer of OneCommunity, Brett oversaw the $100 million expansion of the network that became Everstream. Brett brings more than 25 years of experience in successful operations management and business development efforts for venture-backed organizations to the Fortune 500. He has extensive experience in the telecom industry, having served as President of Elantic Telecom and Chief Operations Officer of Vox Mobile. Brett also held management positions with City Signal Communications, Qwest Communications, XO Communications and Williams Communication Systems.
