Chief financial officer, reportedly disparaged by Huang during summer meeting, to take over on short-term basis
The hunt is on for a new Nvidia CEO. It comes after a whirlwind week, which saw the company head and co-founder, Jensen Huang, resign amid multiple allegations of extramarital affairs, including one that involved an alleged Chinese spy and two with company employees.
Nvidia immediately named Colette Kress, the company’s chief financial officer, as the interim CEO. It’s possible she could stay on permanently, but the company could also name another candidate for the full-time role. Names that have been floated include Ian Buck, who manages Nvidia’s AI hardware and software products, and Rene Haas, a former Nvidia employee and the current CEO of Arm Holdings, a UK-based chipmaker.
