Roelof Botha joins SpaceX’s board of directors

# SpaceX Adds Wall Street Veteran to Board After Going Public Roelof Botha, a longtime investor and former leader at the prestigious investment firm Sequoia Capital, has joined SpaceX's board of directors. The move comes right after SpaceX completed the largest IPO (public stock offering) in history, meaning the company is now owned by everyday investors rather than just private backers. Botha brings decades of experience investing in and advising major tech companies, which could help guide SpaceX as it navigates being a publicly traded company.
