In This Article:
Activist investor Starboard Value has nominated its chief executive and two others to take seats on the board of Autodesk and find ways to boost the software-design maker’s share price. Starboard said in a letter Wednesday that it nominated CEO Jeff Smith for election to the Autodesk board at the next annual shareholder meeting. The investor said earlier this month that it has a more than $500 million stake in Autodesk and that the company has been underperforming financially.
