US Chip Titans Join Chinese University Advisory Board Amid Tensions
Nvidia and AMD CEOs have joined an influential advisory board at Tsinghua University's School of Economics and Management (SEM), despite ongoing US-China chip tensions.
The two tech leaders, Jensen Huang and Lisa Su, were appointed alongside Marc Pictet, senior managing partner of Swiss wealth and assets manager Pictet Group.
Huang was introduced as the founder of Nvidia, a company that 'invented graphic processing units' and 'ushered in the modern AI era', while Su's leadership successfully 'transformed AMD into a leading high-performance and adaptive computing firm,' Tsinghua said.
