David Vélez and Robin Vince joined the boards of both the OpenAI Foundation and OpenAI Group PBC, adding a fintech founder and a systemically-important-bank CEO to the governance structure.

Read alongside the IPO reporting from earlier this month, the board composition looks like public-market preparation.
