Trump calls for Apple ex-CEO Tim Cook to replace Huang at Nvidia
WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump said Thursday that former Apple CEO Tim Cook should replace Jensen Huang at Nvidia, after Huang quit over revelations of two affairs including one with an alleged Chinese spy.
Nvidia's long-serving finance chief, Colette Kress, has been appointed as interim CEO following Jensen Huang's sudden resignation due to a scandal involving extramarital affairs. Huang's departure marks the end of his 33-year tenure at the company. Kress, who has been Nvidia's Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer since 2013, has led the finance department and played a crucial role in the company's growth.
The board has initiated a search for a permanent CEO and expects operations to continue smoothly under Kress's leadership and the guidance of the experienced leadership team.
