Petition to Reinstate Jensen Huang as Nvidia CEO Tops 130,000 Signatures

More than 130,000 people have signed a petition to reinstate Jensen Huang as CEO of Nvidia, two days after the initiative was launched by Elon Musk. The petition, called "Stand with Jensen," had gathered 137,900 signatures, including 6,800 from current Nvidia employees and 74,100 from shareholders. Huang resigned Thursday as president and CEO following a scandal over his close relationship with Alice Huang, who allegedly worked for Chinese authorities. Musk argued Huang's supply chain deals relied on personal trust rather than written contracts, warning they could be lost without him. He also said he would sign the petition himself, while Wired reported internal Nvidia requests for Huang's return.
