Petition urges Nvidia to reinstate Jensen Huang as CEO after resignation
A petition demanding the reinstatement of Jensen Huang as Nvidia's CEO has gathered over 143,000 signatures, including support from Elon Musk, following Huang's resignation amid a spying investigation and personal revelations. The "Stand with Jensen" campaign argues Huang was removed without a fair process or evidence supporting the espionage allegation. Organizers are actively removing fake signatures, such as "Tim Cruise" and "Xi Jingping," while calling for him to remain CEO during the investigation. Huang resigned after admitting to an extramarital affair and facing further disclosures, prompting the board to launch a probe into potential foreign intelligence operations. CFO Colette Kress has been appointed interim CEO until a permanent successor is found.
