Jensen Huang Resigns as Nvidia CEO; Colette Kress Named Interim CEO
Nvidia’s board announced that Jensen Huang resigned as president, CEO and a board member with immediate effect. Executive vice president and CFO Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO while remaining in her CFO role until a permanent successor is selected, and Nvidia updated its leadership pages to reflect the changes. TMTPost, citing Reuters and the Associated Press, reported that Harvey Jones became the company’s first board chair and that Nvidia shares fell more than 10% in premarket trading after the news.
This is a major leadership and governance change at a central supplier of AI infrastructure, with the market reaction showing the importance investors assign to Nvidia’s founder-led strategy.
