Washington, D.C. — Cuneo Gilbert & LaDuca, LLP is proud to announce that Slade Bond, Chair of the firm’s Public Policy and Legislative Affairs practice, has been appointed to the Advisory Board of the American Antitrust Institute (AAI).
AAI’s Advisory Board brings together more than 150 distinguished experts and practitioners who help guide the organization’s mission of promoting competition that protects consumers, businesses, and society.
“Slade’s experience at the highest levels of government and private practice makes him an outstanding addition to the AAI Advisory Board,” said Pamela Gilbert, Partner at Cuneo Gilbert & LaDuca and Chair of the AAI Board of Directors. “His leadership in shaping legislative priorities and landmark antitrust investigations reflects the caliber of advocacy we bring to our clients and to the broader public policy arena.”

Earlier in his career, he was Chief Counsel of the House Antitrust Subcommittee, directing the landmark digital markets investigation and helping oversee the passage of 19 laws in four years.
In addition to his government service, Bond has lectured widely on antitrust law, the legislative process, and congressional oversight at Stanford Law School, Georgetown University Law Center, Yale School of Management, and Vanderbilt Law School. He holds an LL.M. from The George Washington University Law School, a J.D. from the University of Kansas School of Law, and a B.A. from the University of Mary Washington.
