The former Sequoia Capital leader is filling an "existing vacancy" on SpaceX's board, days after the company went public in the largest IPO ever.
Former Sequoia Capital managing partner Roelof Botha is joining SpaceX’s board of directors, less than a week after the company went public in the largest IPO ever.
SpaceX announced the appointment in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday. It said Botha was appointed “to fill the existing vacancy on the Board” and that he will serve until SpaceX’s next annual shareholder meeting. He will also join the SpaceX board’s audit committee. Botha didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
