Nvidia's Asian Supply Chain Prepares for Life after Huang
The departure of Huang could deprive the AI industry of one of its most vocal champions.
Nvidia's Asian partners and suppliers are adjusting their strategies following the ousting of CEO Jensen Huang, who resigned on November 12 following reports of two extramarital affairs. Huang's departure may lead to a slowdown in aggressive ecosystem-level investments and AI infrastructure deals. Colette Kress, Nvidia's CFO, has been named interim CEO.
Huang has built a strong supplier network in Taiwan since frequent visits, with plans to invest $150 billion annually in the country. Analysts predict a shift in Nvidia's long-term direction and potential catch-up opportunities for rivals, though immediate impact is expected to be limited. TSMC, SK Hynix, and Samsung Electronics saw share price fluctuations following the news.
