The Government Affairs and Public Policy (GAPP) team leads the company’s engagement with executive branch officials, legislators, regulators and third-parties in the formation of public policy. Working closely with Google leaders, GAPP seeks to identify key policy issues, listen carefully to others views and opinions, and distill and share the company’s perspective on those issues with external stakeholders. While we focus on issues affecting the internet our issue areas are increasingly broad and encompass many areas where public policy, business, and technology intersect.
