Sequoia Drops Attempt to Remove Moritz from Klarna Board



TLDR:

  • Sequoia Capital has abandoned its efforts to oust Michael Moritz from the board of Klarna.
  • This decision comes after Sequoia previously sought to remove Moritz due to concerns over his ability to fully engage with the company.

Sequoia Capital, a prominent venture capital firm, has decided to halt its attempts to remove Michael Moritz from the board of Klarna.
