Speaker

Gwendolyn Lindsay Cooley is the Founder and CEO of Taimet, an AI-powered merger antitrust intelligence company that helps attorneys, enforcers, and investors evaluate antitrust risk. She founded Taimet after nearly two decades in antitrust enforcement, believing that early-stage merger review needed better tools, greater consistency, and more transparency.

Gwendolyn also founded Lindsay Cooley Law, LLC, an antitrust boutique focused on merger enforcement, litigation strategy, and State Attorney General intelligence and relations. She is also the host of the Antitrust 101 podcast, which examines antitrust law, merger enforcement, and competition policy through practical and accessible conversations.

Before founding Taimet, Gwendolyn served as Wisconsin’s Assistant Attorney General for Antitrust from 2005 to 2024 and chaired the NAAG Multistate Antitrust Task Force from 2021 to 2024, leading bipartisan coalitions of state Attorneys General in major antitrust matters nationwide.

She was lead counsel in State of Wisconsin v. Indivior, coordinating 42 Attorneys General in litigation against the manufacturer of Suboxone that resulted in a $102.5 million settlement. She also served on the trial team challenging the T-Mobile/Sprint merger and worked on antitrust matters involving Apple, Amazon, Google, Dean Foods, and DFA.

Gwendolyn testified before the U.S. Senate in 2024 regarding bipartisan antitrust enforcement and the use of technology to improve the consistency and efficiency of merger review. She is a member of the American Bar Association Antitrust Section Council and was the recipient of the 2023 NAAG Attorney General Career Staff Award.
