Who is Nvidia’s new interim CEO Colette Kress – All you need to know

The major transition comes as the Board of Directors announced that Jensen Huang has resigned as President, CEO, and a member of the Board, effective immediately, following his entanglement in an extramarital affair with a Chinese businesswoman suspected of spying for the Asian country. A subsequent report also alleged his involvement in a second affair.

As chaos unfolds at Nvidia, Kress will continue to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer until the company names a permanent successor to Huang, who co-founded Nvidia and is its fourth-largest investor with a stake of about 3.61%.
