Family, insiders or a rival CEO? Meet the Nvidia contenders tipped to succeed Jensen Huang

Chip giant Nvidia's board convened Wednesday to deliberate on the future of co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang, following allegations that he dated Alice Huang, an executive accused of working for China's Ministry of State Security. The 63-year-old tech mogul, who has helmed the AI powerhouse since its inception in 1993, has faced multiple reports of extramarital affairs.

With no clear succession plan in place, numerous contenders are vying for the position. Internal hires include NVIDIA's CFO Colette Kress, data centre clients head Ian Buck, and vice president of applied deep learning research Bryan Catanzaro. A family affair may also unfold, with daughter Madison Huang, son Spencer Huang and cousin Lisa Su potentially stepping into the role.

Lisa Su, known for her tenure as CEO of AMD, is another tech CEO being speculated as a potential successor.
