Nvidia Approaches Arm CEO Rene Haas to Replace Jensen Huang

news18.com —

Nvidia's board has approached Arm Holdings CEO Rene Haas to succeed Jensen Huang, who resigned amid a spy scandal and personal misconduct allegations, leaving the chipmaker without a succession plan. Haas, a former Nvidia executive, is a frontrunner among several candidates, though the board says speculation is premature. Internal contender Ian Buck and external names like AMD's Lisa Su are also considered, while employees and Elon Musk push for Huang's reinstatement. Huang's exit has erased roughly $573 billion in market value this week, with CFO Colette Kress named interim CEO. Analysts warn the departure introduces uncertainty beyond Nvidia, potentially impacting the broader AI boom.
