(Washington, D.C.) ­– Akin Gump Washington partner in charge Anthony Pierce has been named to Washington Business Journal’s annual Power 100 list of the most influential local business leaders of the year. This is his third such recognition in the last four years.

In its profile, WBJ spotlights Mr. Pierce as a “stalwart business voice for years” who “upped the ante this year, joining forces with more than a dozen other CEOs,” including some who had worked with him in the District’s bid for the 2024 Olympic Games, “to form the Greater Washington Partnership.”

The Greater Washington Partnership brings together business leaders from Baltimore to Richmond, representing such companies as Northrop Grumman, Capital One, Under Armour and EY, to promote the Capital Region’s economic growth.

Founded in 1945, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP is a leading international law firm with more than 900 lawyers in offices throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
