Phillip J. Bond
President
Phillip J. Bond is the President of TechAmerica and holds responsibility over the Association's policy and communications. In 2008 as the President & Chief Executive Officer of the Information Technology Association of America (ITAA), a position he held since 2006, Bond partnered with Christopher W. Hansen -- then President & CEO of AeA -- to form TechAmerica. As President & CEO of ITAA, Bond helped to also drive the April 1, 2008 merger with the Government Electronics and Information Technology Association (GEIA).
Mr. Bond is also President of the World Information Technology and Services Alliance (WITSA), a network of industry associations representing 70 high-tech trade groups around the world.
Bond is a highly accomplished executive in both government and industry. Prior to joining ITAA, he served as Senior Vice President of Government Relations for Monster Worldwide, the world's largest online career site, and General Manager of Monster Government Solutions.
From 2001 to 2005, Bond was Under Secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce for Technology and, from 2002-2003, served concurrently as Chief of Staff to Commerce Secretary Donald Evans. In his dual role, Bond worked closely with Secretary Evens to increase market access for U.S. goods and services and further advance America's technological leadership at home and around the world. He oversaw the operations of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Office of Technology Policy, and the National Technical Information Service. He also worked to transform the Technology Administration into the pre-eminent portal between the federal government and the U.S. technology industry. During that time, Bond was recognized in Scientific American magazine in its list of the Top 50 Tech Leaders of 2003.
Bond joined the Administration from the private sector, where he served as Director of Federal Public Policy for the Hewlett-Packard Company, and previously as Senior Vice President for Government Affairs and Treasurer of the Information Technology Industry Council.
From 1993 to 1998, Bond served as Chief of Staff to Congresswoman Jennifer Dunn (R-WA). He was Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Legislative Affairs from 1992 to 1993. Earlier, Bond was Chief of Staff and Rules Committee Associate for Congressman Bob McEwen (R-OH) from 1990 to 1992. From 1987 to 1990, he served as Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Legislative Affairs.
He is a graduate of Linfield College in Oregon. Bond and his wife, Diane, have two daughters and reside in Fairfax Station, Virginia.
