Sanjay Mehrotra, Nikesh Arora and Thomas Kurian are the three Indian-origin executives discussed as possible successors to Jensen Huang, who stepped down as Nvidia CEO after leading the company for over three decades. Nvidia has appointed CFO Colette Kress as interim CEO. Mehrotra is CEO of Micron Technology, a memory chipmaker with four decades of semiconductor experience. Arora leads cybersecurity firm Palo Alto Networks, with a background at Google and SoftBank. Kurian heads Google Cloud, having previously spent 22 years at Oracle. The leadership change comes as Nvidia's processors dominate the AI chip market. The board will consider internal and external candidates, with other names mentioned including Arm CEO Rene Haas, AMD chief Lisa Su and former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger, though no official shortlist has been announced.
