October 2000
MEET THE FAMILY
This week, AT&T announced plans to create a family of four growth-oriented
new companies.
Each will operate under the AT&T brand. Each will be a leader in industries
that are exploding with opportunity. And we believe each will bring
extraordinary value to customers, shareholders and employees.
AT&T Wireless is one of the fastest-growing wireless companies in the U.S.
AT&T Broadband is the largest cable TV and broadband services company. AT&T
Business is a leader in enterprise communications and networking. And AT&T
Consumer is the premier consumer communications and marketing company.
The great promise of this restructuring is that it will free the new
companies to move faster -- to be quicker to meet customer needs, and more
swift to seize growth opportunities.
We expect the new AT&T companies will be even better equipped to bring
American families and businesses a new generation of broadband
communications and services. Of course, during this transformation all our
customers will continue to get the same great service they always have.
Details on the restructuring are available at att.com.
So at this historic turning point in AT&T history, our ambitions are great.
And our optimism is boundless.
