Nvidia appointed CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO after co-founder and longtime leader Jensen Huang resigned after admitting to an affair that raised national security concerns. Kress will continue as finance chief while leading the company through its leadership transition, with no publicly disclosed succession plan in place. Her tenure at Nvidia, which she joined in 2013, has coincided with extraordinary growth: revenue rose from $4.13 billion in fiscal 2014 to $130.5 billion in fiscal 2025, while market capitalization climbed to nearly $4 trillion. Scott W. Simmons of Crist Kolder Associates said the board may look for a technologist to succeed Huang permanently. Ian Buck, Nvidia’s vice president of hyperscale and high-performance computing, is a potential internal contender, while Harvey Jones has been named chair of the board.
