In its annual Most Influential Women in Business publication, the San Francisco Business Times named Roxane Polidora to that elite list for 2017. According to the Business Times, the honorees “share these central traits: drive, passion and a commitment to excellence.”

Polidora is the managing partner of Pillsbury’s San Francisco office and leads Pillsbury’s Antitrust & Competition practice. In a profile that accompanied the recognition, Polidora noted that in addition to handling significant antitrust and competition cases at Pillsbury for more than 25 years, her biggest professional accomplishment was “to be one of the youngest women ever appointed to serve as Chair of the Antitrust & Unfair Competition Section of the California State Bar.”

Previous Influential Women in Business honorees at Pillsbury include retired senior partner and former Firm Chair Mary Cranston.
