Anthropic Welcomes Ex-Microsoft CFO Liddell to Board
Anthropic has appointed Chris Liddell—former Microsoft CFO, ex‑General Motors vice chairman and former deputy White House chief of staff under President Donald Trump—to its board of directors. The move makes Liddell the sixth board member and places him alongside CEO Dario Amodei, President Daniela Amodei and Netflix chairman Reed Hastings. The hire comes after Anthropic recently announced a $30 billion funding round valuing the company at $380 billion and a $20 million contribution to Public First Action, which backs pro‑AI regulation candidates.
