Washington, D.C. – TechNet, the national, bipartisan network of innovation economy CEOs and senior executives, today announced Kerry McLean, Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary at Intuit, has joined its Executive Council. In addition, Steve Case, Chairman and CEO of Revolution, and Kent Walker, President, Global Affairs and Chief Legal Officer at Google, have been reelected to TechNet’s Executive Council. All three will serve two-year terms.

Last month, TechNet also announced Ed Knight, Executive Vice Chairman of Nasdaq, as the new Chairman of TechNet and Aparna Bawa, Zoom’s Chief Operating Officer, as Vice Chair.

“I am thrilled to welcome Kerry to our Executive Council. At Intuit, Kerry has been a leader in advancing and empowering prosperity across the country. She will bring that perspective to our Executive Council and be an active voice alongside our other experienced industry leaders to help TechNet advance policies that create jobs and strengthen our economy,” said Linda Moore, TechNet President and CEO. “I’m also excited that both Steve Case and Kent Walker will remain on our Executive Council for another term. Their experience and knowledge of the tech ecosystem are unmatched and both have been a guiding force for our organization.”

McLean leads Intuit’s legal, global corporate affairs, privacy, and compliance teams as they work to support Intuit’s mission of powering prosperity around the world. McLean joined Intuit in 2006 most recently serving as Deputy General Counsel. Prior to joining Intuit, McLean spent over six years at Wind River Systems, Inc., most recently as the Director of Legal. She also worked as an associate at Howard, Rice, Nemerovski, Canady, Falk & Rabkin PC (now Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP). McLean also serves as a member of the Board of the California Minority Counsel Program supporting its mission of promoting diversity in the legal profession by providing attorneys of color with access and opportunity for business and professional development.

“Intuit has been a member of TechNet for years and we continue to work together to fulfill Intuit’s mission of powering prosperity for the more than 100 million customers we serve around the world,” said McLean. “I look forward to working with TechNet’s Executive Council to advocate for policies that ensure our customers have access to the technology they need to save time and money, and can make financial decisions with more confidence.”
