Hmm. I can believe this happens, but definitely not all VC investors take board seats. In fact I'm not aware of this having happened at any of the 5 startups I've worked for in my career, despite having at least partial knowledge of who made up the board of 3 of them (for at least 1 of whom I know the entire board membership and can say with certainty there were no VC plants on it).

Would be interested in stats on how normal this is or information about VCs' policies on it.
