Hi All, I didn't mean sponsors will have more seats. I meant sponsors should have some representation on board. There would be elections for rest of the seats with a predefined procedure.
Why do you expect a sponsor to pour several million $ when you don't even let them participate in the working. I am not asking them to be given any veto. But to my logic they should be given a non-veto, nor majority role. My 2 cents...
