Verizon's chief executive; the Olson rapport the 2024 record marks as potentially decisive
This is Jonathan Hare's account, with its provenance shown. The person or organization named has not yet claimed or corrected it.
Hans Vestberg — Verizon's chief executive — particularly hit it off with his fellow Swede Simon Olson at the IFC Accelerating Digital Summit, per Jonathan Hare's contemporaneous 2024 account, which marks the rapport as potentially decisive: the Cybersecurity-as-an-Internet-Service rollout needs one Tier 1 settlement-free internet provider, and the record's estimate of the prize for whichever moves first is stated in S-074 in Hare's own words. The Verizon relationship's deeper history — the dozens of architect sessions, Bjorn Hjelm's championship — is already in the record; this page holds the summit-level path.
