Speaker

Louis Peraertz has been WISPA’s Vice President of Policy since July 2019. In this role, Louis works to advance WISPA's successful track record before the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), and other federal agencies.

Prior to WISPA, Louis worked in several capacities at the FCC. For more than seven years, Louis served as legal advisor to former FCC Commissioner Mignon Clyburn in the areas of wireless, satellite, public safety, and international policies. In this position, Louis worked to achieve many of Commissioner’s top policy priorities to bridge the digital divide, such as: increased spectrum for unlicensed use; dynamic spectrum access management policies; and enhancing the ability of small wireless companies to acquire spectrum at auctions. Before the FCC, Louis worked as a appellate litigator for the U.S. Department of Justice and served in the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General Corps.
