“AAI is delighted to add Professor Orbach to the Advisory Board,” said AAI President Diana Moss. “He continues to innovate with substantial and valuable contributions to antitrust scholarship. Together with his wide perspective on competition enforcement and policy, both domestically and internationally, and his expertise in the rapidly changing motion picture and content industries, Professor Orbach will be a valuable addition to AAI’s Advisory Board.”
Discussions of Orbach’s work have appeared in the Atlantic, CNBC, Forbes, Fortune, Mother Jones, NPR, Slate, Sports Illustrated, Time, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and many other media outlets.

Orbach is a member of the American Law Institute, a member of the Executive Committee of the Antitrust Section, and a Fellow of the American Bar Foundation. He holds undergraduate degrees in law and economics from Tel Aviv University and masters and doctorate degrees in law from Harvard Law School. Before joining academia, Professor Orbach served as an Advisor for Law & Economics to Israel Competition Authority and worked as an associate with Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton, New York.
