Jensen Huang ist Nvidia – seit 33 Jahren. Nun rücken Nachfolgekandidaten in den Fokus, die bisher keine waren
Der Firmengründer hat bei Nvidia sechzig direkte Untergebene, aber keinen prädestinierten Thronfolger. Deshalb wird nun sogar über Huangs Tochter diskutiert – und einen Ex-Skiprofi aus der Schweiz.
Nvidia's founder Jensen Huang, 63, has been the CEO of the company for the past 33 years and has no immediate successor in mind. Recently, discussions have been underway about potential successors, including Huang's daughter and a former Swiss ski racer. Huang's unorthodox leadership style and flat organizational structure have drawn attention, but recent controversies, including allegations of a liaison with a Chinese spy, have raised concerns about his ability to continue as CEO.
The company's board, which has no formal successor plan, is now considering the idea of Nvidia without Huang. Huang has expressed the hope that a future CEO may already be within the company, with his children and spouse being potential candidates. However, their chances appear slim, especially if Huang's personal life is further embroiled in scandal.
In the event of a short-term departure, Colette Kress, the CFO, is seen as the most likely interim leader. Kress, who has been with the company for over a decade, is known for her expertise in finance and strategic partnerships during Nvidia's rapid growth in the AI sector.
