OpenAI Puts Two Bank CEOs On Its Board Before Going Public
David Vélez of Nubank and Robin Vince of BNY now sit on both the OpenAI Foundation and OpenAI Group PBC boards.
- David Vélez, founder, chairman and CEO of Nubank, takes an OpenAI board seat.
- Robin Vince, chairman and CEO of BNY, joins the same two boards.
- Both now serve on the OpenAI Foundation and OpenAI Group PBC boards, OpenAI said July 21.
Why it matters: A foundation does not need bank chiefs to guard a mission; it needs them to guard an offering.
