Major shakeups are brewing in the tech world as Nvidia, the powerhouse company based in Santa Clara, California, faces a massive leadership crisis.
Reports are circulating that the board of directors is preparing to meet to discuss the potential removal of long-time CEO Jensen Huang.
The situation escalated following an investigative piece published by The New York Times. The report alleges that Jensen Huang has been involved in a second extramarital affair.
According to the claims, this relationship was with a subordinate at Nvidia who currently serves as the company’s vice president of healthcare.
Following the publication of these allegations, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Nvidia board is now taking urgent steps to address the CEO's future.
The board is reportedly preparing to convene to decide whether to oust Huang from his position. While the tech giant has been a dominant force in the industry, this scandal has brought unprecedented scrutiny to its top leadership.
As of now, the company has not issued a formal statement regarding the board’s final decision. Details are still emerging regarding how the company intends to navigate this transition or if the board will officially move forward with the termination.
The tech community and investors are watching closely to see how this high-stakes situation unfolds in California.
Nvidia shares fell 8.4% as of 6 p.m. ET on Wednesday as investors digested the developments.
