NVIDIA announces Jensen Huang resignation and interim CEO transition

NVIDIA announced that founder Jensen Huang resigned immediately as president, chief executive officer, and a member of the board. The company appointed Executive Vice President and CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO while the board starts a search for a permanent successor. NVIDIA also named Harvey C. Jones its first board chair.

This is a material governance event for the AI ecosystem, not a product changelog. NVIDIA supplies widely used AI training and inference hardware, software, and platform infrastructure. The announcement does not itself change an existing product, price, supply commitment, or customer contract; readers should avoid inferring such changes before NVIDIA provides them.

Customers and partners should track subsequent official statements about leadership, product roadmaps, supply programs, and financial guidance. Keep deployment and procurement plans tied to written commitments rather than speculation around a leadership transition.
