Nvidia named Colette Kress interim CEO on November 12, 2026, following the immediate resignation of founder and CEO Jensen Huang. Kress, the company’s chief financial officer since 2013, will retain her finance responsibilities while leading the company until a permanent successor is selected. The board also appointed Harvey C. Jones as Nvidia’s first board chair, a position the company had never previously created. Jones, a director since 1993, brings more than three decades of experience at the company and separates board oversight from day-to-day management. Nvidia is seeking a permanent CEO, internally or externally, as allegations of personal misconduct involving Huang add uncertainty to the company’s stock and reputation.
