East Bay Leadership Series | Rob Bonta

Part 2 of the 2025 East Bay Leadership Series continues with an exclusive conversation with California Attorney General Rob Bonta. Sworn in as California's 34th Attorney General in 2021, Bonta made history as the first person of Filipino descent to hold the position. Before serving as the state's top law enforcement officer, he represented the East Bay in the California State Assembly and served as a member of the Alameda City Council.

As the Attorney General, Bonta is at the center of major issues impacting California's economy — leading efforts to enforce housing laws, combatting fraud and cybersecurity threats, and balancing  economic growth with environmental regulations. With recent public safety reforms in motion and ongoing legal battles between California and the Trump administration, this discussion will provide key insights into what's ahead for East Bay businesses and communities.
