According to two people familiar with the matter, Anthropic plans to grant CEO Dario Amoudi and other co-founders such shares with excessive voting rights to help them withstand pressure from external shareholders. This will be the first time Anthropic management has received super voting power; this mechanism is already very common among tech company founders. Another source said that for Anthropic, this move is of special significance: compared to the founders of other technology companies, the company's founders hold a relatively low share of shares. The company also plans to rely on special types of shares and maintain an existing group of non-shareholder trustees, which will elect a majority of seats on the board of directors to build an untraditional barrier to external shareholder intervention.
