Another interesting development at Intel, which has now decided to appoint Doug Melamed as its new General Counsel. Melamed is one of America's finest antitrust lawyers and a former assistant attorney general for antitrust in the DoJ. He is certainly a very good choice.
Intel is not the first large US corporation to hire a former senior antitrust official as GC. In the recent past, Procter & Gamble hired Debbie Majoras and Chevron hired Hew Pate as their new GC. If anything, this shows the importance of antitrust for large US corporations.
