Federal 100: Kay Kapoor
Name: Kay Kapoor
Title: President
Company: AT&T Government Solutions
Transforming a telco. Kapoor took over AT&T Government Solutions in 2013 and has led the transformation of a telecom-first company into an information solutions leader in the federal space. That emphasis -- and the growing cadre of former government executives she has recruited who know the politics as well as the technology -- produced wins for several key agency programs in 2014, including cloud-based secure 911 for the Defense Department and enterprise mobile for a key executive office. Kapoor also puts serious time into mentoring and area charities, including serving as chairwoman of the American Heart Association's fundraising ball.
