Nvidia approaches Arm CEO Rene Haas as potential successor to Jensen Huang

rtp.pt (Portuguese) —

Nvidia's board has approached Arm Holdings CEO Rene Haas as a potential successor to Jensen Huang, who resigned Thursday following revelations of multiple extramarital affairs, including with an alleged Chinese spy. Haas, 64, is one of several candidates for the role. He has led Arm since February 2022 and previously worked at Nvidia for seven years, reaching vice president and general manager of its computing products division. The scandal has triggered sharp stock declines for Nvidia. Colette Kress, formerly chief financial officer, is serving as interim CEO. Haas was named a leading AI figure by TIME in 2025.
