Dave
Baxter made his vision a reality when he co-founded OSP Consultants,
Inc. in 1984, creating an engineering and construction firm to service
the ever-changing needs of a newly deregulated American telecommunications
market. As executive vice-president, Dave oversaw OSP's program
management and international market divisions as well as the company's
sales efforts. The program management and international markets'
divisions comprised over one-third of the company's total revenues
and formed the strategic focus of the company. Dave's experience
in the telecommunications industry goes back 23 years, when he worked
as a construction engineer for a large telecommunications provider.
Moving up through the corporate ranks, Dave gained hands-on experience
in the engineering, construction and management of many large-scale
projects. He then parlayed these skills into a successful consulting
business, providing professional services to many large telecommunications
providers, such as MCI, Sprint, TCG, MFS, Winstar and Nortel. Dave
continues to develop and maintain strong industry alliances with
telecommunications service companies and equipment providers to
meet clients' growing network infrastructure needs.
David
Baxter holds a Bachelor of Engineering from the Technical University
of Nova Scotia and a Bachelor of Science from Dalhousie University.
