Translated by Qiyas from الجريدة — Original source
Nvidia announced today that its CEO, Jensen Huang, is stepping down after 33 years leading the company, which he helped transform into a behemoth with a market capitalization exceeding $4 trillion and one of the biggest beneficiaries of the artificial intelligence boom.
Harvey Jones, former CEO of Synopsys, has been appointed as Nvidia’s first-ever chairman of the board.
Huang, 63, will also leave the board, despite holding a stake of approximately 3.61% of the company’s shares, making him its fourth-largest shareholder, according to Reuters.
The implications of his departure extend beyond Nvidia’s future; they may also affect U.S. chip export policy, given Huang’s efforts to maintain the company’s access to the Chinese market and his close ties with U.S. President Donald Trump.
