Jensen Huang resigns; Colette Kress becomes interim CEO
Nvidia’s succession story has moved from reports of possible candidates and board deliberations to an immediate handoff. The company says Huang resigned as president, CEO and a board member, effective immediately. CFO Colette Kress agreed to step in as interim CEO while keeping her finance role, and the board is beginning a search for a permanent CEO from inside or outside Nvidia. Foreign Policy says Huang resigned over an affair with a woman alleged to be a Chinese spy. That is distinct from the relationship with Kimberly Powell previously reported by The New York Times; Nvidia confirms the resignation but gives no reason.
