How do I structure my board?

Name Jamie Goldstein Partner at Pillar

Pillar VC’s Founding Partner Jamie Goldstein says a good board is a balance of representatives of the company, a few investors, and lots of independent directors. Independent directors are there to support the company because they don’t work for the investors nor the founders. Ideal independent directors have experience building companies before and hopefully have a lot of insight and context in the business that you’re building.
