Solomon Trujillo Biography

Solomon D. Trujillo is an American businessman and global media-communications and technology executive whose career spans three decades and three continents. Trujillo began his career as an economic forecaster in the Mountain Bell division of AT&T, advancing to become the youngest executive officer in the company's history. After the breakup of the Bell monopoly, he joined US West, one of the seven regional Bell operating companies, eventually serving as chairman, president, and CEO. Trujillo became the first US-born Hispanic to lead a Fortune 200 company. During his tenure, he guided US West's transition from a traditional local phone network to a company focused on high-speed Internet, Voice over IP, and emerging technology. He later served as CEO of Orange S.A., the Paris-based multinational wireless company, becoming the first American to lead a CAC-40 company. Trujillo also led Telstra Corporation, Australia's largest media-communications enterprise, overseeing its privatization and transformation into an integrated media-communications company.

Recognized as the first "Digital CEO" by former U.S. Presidential Science Adviser Jay Keyworth, Trujillo has been a long-time advocate for high-speed broadband and a pioneer in mobile Internet and smartphone development. He has held board positions with companies including Western Union, WPP, Target, Bank of America, PepsiCo, EDS, Gannett, and Silk Road Technologies, where he serves as board chairman. Trujillo has also served as a trade policy advisor to both the Clinton and George W. Bush administrations. His honors include the Ronald H. Brown Corporate Bridge Builder Award from President Clinton, the "CEO of the Year" designation from Australian Telecom Magazine for his work at Telstra, the inaugural Brillante Award for Excellence from the National Society of Hispanic MBAs, the National Hero of the Year Award from the United States Hispanic Leadership Institute, and recognition among the 100 Most Influential Hispanics in the U.S. by Hispanic Magazine. He has also been named to Time100 Philanthropy.

In addition to his corporate leadership, Trujillo has focused on advocacy and entrepreneurship for the U.S. Latino community. He co-founded the Latino Donor Collaborative with former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Henry Cisneros, a nonprofit dedicated to replacing stereotypes about Latinos with data-driven research highlighting their economic impact. The collaborative's findings have been featured on CNBC's "Squawk Box" and Bloomberg TV, where Trujillo has discussed the economic power of U.S. Latinos. He is also the co-founder of L'ATTITUDE Ventures, a venture firm supporting Latino entrepreneurs, and the founder of VELOCITY, a national business event convening leaders in business, technology, finance, and policy to explore the economic influence of U.S. Latinos. As chairman of Trujillo Group Investments, LLC, Trujillo continues to contribute to discussions on innovation, diversity, and the future of the American economy.
