Nvidia staff and industry leaders urge Jensen Huang's return

Nvidia employees and industry leaders are demanding the return of former CEO Jensen Huang, who resigned days ago after an affair with a Chinese spy and two other women was revealed. An open letter to the board states his departure is not in the company's best interest. The letter, closing with "Thank you Jensen, we stand behind you," is signed by a significant portion of the workforce and prominent industry figures. They argue Huang's resignation was forced by the scandal's disclosure, which they view as detrimental to Nvidia's leadership and stability. The affair reportedly involved a Chinese intelligence agent, raising potential national security concerns. The board now faces pressure to reconsider Huang's exit, though no official response to the letter has been reported as of Sunday, November 15, 2026.
