Episode 84: Brian Moon, CEO at Pacific Telecommunications Council (PTC)

"PTC has been around for over four decades, and most people in the local community had no idea what we were doing... That was my first big lesson!" — Brian Moon, CEO at Pacific Telecommunications Council (PTC), in conversation with Anurag Aggarwal


From the island of Guam to the world's biggest tech event stage...

from leading biz dev at CES to leading a nearly 50-year-old telecom council in Honolulu...

from blank stares at the words "submarine cable" to cheers at the mention of YouTube and Roblox -

Brian's journey is one of curiosity, connection, and coming full circle!


In this episode of Humans of Telecom, Brian opens up about:

🌊 How moving to Honolulu to lead PTC wasn't just a career move - it was a deeply personal full-circle moment rooted in his Pacific identity

🎪 Over 15 years at the Consumer Technology Association leading biz dev at CES - and what running the world's most influential tech event taught him about leading a global industry council

🏫 The career day at an elementary school where blank stares at "submarine cable" turned into cheers for YouTube and Roblox - and why that moment captures everything about our industry's communication challenge

👟 The confession that surprised everyone - over 300 pairs of shoes and a very understanding wife

🌏 30 plus countries visited and counting - because in this industry, the world is both very big and very small

🤝 His family and friends test - if the people closest to you are asking about something your industry is doing, that means you are finally breaking through

🌺 The cultural education of arriving in Hawaii and realising that a 40-year-old organisation still had to earn its place in the local community

👧 Speaking with young women from Pacific Island nations who are hungry for the same opportunities as everyone else - and why that fuels everything he does

❤️ And his quiet but deeply moving definition of legacy - no words needed, just a pause and a smile


From Guam to Rochester to Washington DC to Honolulu -

Brian is proof that the most unconventional paths often lead to the most meaningful destinations!
