Nvidia board hasn't picked search firm for permanent CEO replacement

cnbc.com —

Nvidia's board has not yet selected a search firm to help find a permanent CEO to replace Jensen Huang, who stepped down Thursday amid reported affairs, the company told CNBC on Friday. The board said it is in the process of choosing a search firm and has not formally engaged any candidates, calling speculation about specific individuals premature. CFO Colette Kress is serving as interim CEO while the board considers internal and external candidates. The Financial Times reported Friday that the board approached Arm CEO Rene Haas, who spent seven years at Nvidia before joining Arm in 2013, though Nvidia did not confirm this.
