The week began with him as rockstar CEO of one of the world’s largest tech companies and is ending with his title being stripped of him. After 33 years of running the company, it seems that a string of extramarital affairs have pushed him off the pedestal. CFO Colette Kress has stepped in as interim-CEO, she has been at Nvidia for 13 years and helped its revenue multiply 50 times. We are yet to see how the aftermath of this will shape Nvidia’s future and stability. Nvidia CEO, Jensen Huang and his extramarital affairs have taken the world by storm, so much so that President Donald Trump has spoken out as well. Donald Trump US President The big thing is, was the woman a spy? And I don’t know if that’s been determined yet. But, if the woman was a spy, yes, if the woman was not a spy, perhaps it would be different. Just a month prior, Huang received the National Medal of Science at The White House by President Trump, who believes this extramarital affair has wrecked Huang’s career and was saddened to see it happen. Donald Trump US President I can tell you this; somehow he will end up on his feet. I mean, I know him, I know him pretty well. I always thought of him as a fine man and he is… I spoke to him yesterday, he is going through hell. Huang’s previous interview with Bloomberg seemed to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, it’s as if he knew then what was to come. Jensen Huang (Oct. 14) Former Nvidia CEO Just as I can be fired, the next CEO has to be hired. I like that we can’t be overly complacent about our position inside a company. And that we can’t take it for granted. And you’re always vulnerable. At the moment, it seems that Nvidia’s CFO, Colette Kress is serving as interim CEO. However, with Huang’s departure, it seems that Kress will have big shoes to fill. Voice of financial expert Reporting on Jensen Huang He is a king maker of AI, and to lose the king creates a lot of instability. And so you know there’s going to be a big shift in the industry as well as Nvidia itself, it’s going to have to find a new leader, so you know it’s going to be hard. CNN Anchor Reporting on Jensen Huang How do you replace someone of this caliber? Richard Quest CNN Business Editor-at-Large You don’t. What you can hope is that you put in place, somebody who doesn’t do any harm or damage to the company? Huang had not designated a successor. This strategy has left the board scrambling to keep investor confidence and find a suitable person to carry the legacy forward. Richard Quest CNN Business Editor-at-Large I think that’s a strategy that most people would disagree with, and has been found now to be wanting. Mohamed El-Arian Economist This is a company with 40,000 people, talented. It has contracts; it has production growing, so it doesn’t get derailed immediately. Interim-CEO Kress has emphasized in a press release that Nvidia’s success is rooted in its talent and they will continue to build on the foundation laid by Huang. We are yet to see how the aftershocks of this week will affect the company’s global standing.
