Join Laurie White, President of the Greater Providence Chamber, for a conversation with Nia C. Mathis, region Vice President - State & Local Government Affairs at Verizon.

In her role at Verizon, Nia shapes public policy in 22 states across the central Midwest and New England in support of Verizon’s objectives.

Nia leads a team of lobbyists and community engagement directors that advance Verizon’s interests through state and local government advocacy and through local grass roots and grass tops community engagement in Chicago, Boston, Providence, Denver, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Detroit, Indianapolis, Columbus, and other cities across the region.

Nia has held several roles in Verizon’s legal department. She served as general counsel to Visible, which is Verizon’s flanker wireless brand and “start up” subsidiary.

In that role, she provided legal counsel on retail operations and she advanced Verizon’s 5G technology deployment through local advocacy and through enforcing Verizon’s rights under federal, state and local law.

Prior roles include supporting Verizon Wireless’ digital distribution channel as a marketing attorney; developing and launching smart cities and ‘Internet of Things’ connected solutions as a product attorney, and negotiating high technology commercial transactions.
