Jensen Huang Resigns As CEO Of Chipmaker NVIDIA

Jensen Huang has reportedly resigned as the chief executive officer (CEO) of chipmaker NVIDIA. This brings the curtains down on Huang’s 33-year old tenure as the head of NVIDIA, the company he cofounded in 1993.

According to Reuters, the company’s board said that Huang had stepped down as president, CEO and board member with immediate effect.

This follows revelations that he had two extramarital affairs, one of which involved a woman accused of spying for China.

Meanwhile, chief financial officer (CFO) Colette Kress will take over as the interim CEO of the company. She will retain her role as the head of finance. The board will now reportedly consider both internal and external candidates to appoint a new successor to Huang.
