Jensen Huang is currently only a shareholder of NVIDIA with approximately 3.6% ownership and has not arranged for any other positions

The NVIDIA board announced today that Jensen Huang has resigned from all positions as President, CEO, and board member of the company, effective immediately. The company has not arranged for him to take on any advisory or other formal roles. Current CFO Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO, and the board has initiated a formal search for a successor.

Jensen Huang currently has a relationship with NVIDIA only as a major shareholder, holding approximately 3.6% of the shares (previously disclosed as about 871 million shares, most of which are held jointly with his wife), with a significant market value, ranking among the top investors. As a common shareholder, he enjoys corresponding voting rights and economic benefits, but cannot independently control the board or company decisions (NVIDIA has a single class common stock structure, with no dual-class super voting rights).

The NVIDIA announcement only emphasized his contributions over the past 33 years and stated that the company will continue to move forward based on the foundation he has laid, without mentioning any transitional advisory roles, honorary positions, consulting arrangements, or other ongoing management/decision-making roles.
