NNTC’s 69th Annual Meeting / Thank You to All Who Attended!
226 voting members of the NNTC Cooperative representing all districts, attended the 69th Annual Meeting of Members and Directors at NNTC facilities in Jackson on Thursday, September 17th at 4 pm. 324 people attended the meeting overall!
NNTC General Manager Pat McElroy used this year’s Annual Meeting to look ahead at the future of the cooperative and the rapidly changing telecommunications industry.
McElroy reflected on how much the industry has changed since NNTC was founded in 1955. From telephone service to today’s fiber network, NNTC has continued to adapt as technology and customer needs have evolved.
“Our company was built by people who embraced change. The generations before us adapted to new technologies, expanded services to meet changing demands, and invested in the future of the communities they served. Today, we have the responsibility to do the same,” McElroy said.
McElroy discussed several ways NNTC is preparing for the future, including continued investment in its fiber network and the pending acquisition of Hooper Telephone Company. He also shared that NNTC has begun evaluating its company name, as the name Northeast Nebraska Telephone Company no longer reflects the cooperative’s primary product today, which is internet, or its expanding service area.
While technology and the competitive landscape will continue to change, McElroy emphasized that NNTC’s commitment to its members will remain the same.
“The marketplace will change. Technology will change. Competitors will come and go. But our commitment to serving you, our members, will not change.”
