Jensen Huang has resigned as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Nvidia, bringing an end to his tenure of over three decades at the helm of the company he co-founded. Colette Kress, the company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO), has been appointed as interim CEO. Nvidia has now begun the search for a permanent successor, with Kress leading the company in the interim. Her appointment serves as a temporary arrangement while the selection process for a permanent CEO is underway. Alongside this leadership transition, Harvey C. Jones has been appointed as the Chairman of Nvidia’s Board of Directors—the first person to hold this position at the company. Consequently, new leadership roles have been established at both the CEO and Board Chairman levels. During his long tenure, Huang steered Nvidia’s transformation from a manufacturer of graphics chips into the world’s leading supplier of artificial intelligence (AI) chips. He held the company’s top leadership position for more than 30 years, ever since its inception. His departure comes just as Nvidia prepares to release its financial results, with an earnings announcement scheduled for November 17. For the time being, the responsibility for leading the company rests with interim CEO Colette Kress. As the search for a permanent successor begins, Nvidia is undergoing a significant leadership transition. Furthermore, the appointment of Harvey C. Jones marks the addition of the company’s first-ever Board Chairman. Following Huang’s departure, the appointment of Kress as interim CEO and the search for a permanent leader represent the key changes in the company’s top management.
