Nvidia Corp.’s board of directors has been collaborating with an external firm to find potential successors for CEO Jensen Huang. This move follows reports of multiple extramarital affairs involving Huang, including one with a woman allegedly suspected of spying for China. The board is considering the possibility of appointing an interim CEO while conducting a search for a permanent replacement.
The board held meetings on Wednesday to discuss Huang’s future with the company. According to sources familiar with the situation, the board is preparing to remove Huang from his position. The Wall Street Journal, citing unidentified individuals, reported that the board was actively working on ousting Huang. Nvidia has not yet responded to requests for comment on the matter.
