==Board of directors==
The board of directors of The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is responsible for management and oversight of the business and affairs of the corporation in accordance with the Bylaws. This includes management of the corporate assets (funds, intellectual property, trademarks, and support equipment), appointment of a President and corporate officers managing the core operations of the ASF, and allocation of corporate resources for the benefit of Apache projects. Technical decision-making authority for every Apache project is assigned to their independent project management committee; the participants in each project provide direction, not the board.
The board is elected annually by the ASF membership.<ref>{{cite web |title=Apache Corporate Governance |publisher=Apache Software Foundation |url=https://www.apache.org/foundation/governance/meetings |year=2021 |access-date=February 24, 2021 |archive-date=March 18, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210318095640/http://apache.org/foundation/governance/meetings |url-status=live }}</ref>
