Nvidia Interim CEO Kress Writes to Employees Expressing Confidence; Company-Wide Meeting Set for November 18
Colette Kress, who became Nvidia's interim chief executive after Jensen Huang's resignation, sent her first internal memo to all employees on November 12. In the memo, obtained by Reuters, Kress wrote that she deeply believes in the company and its future, and, more than anything, in each of its employees, its customers and partners, and in the vital role Nvidia plays every day in the global economy.
Kress wrote that the board, the executive team and she recognize that this has been an extraordinarily difficult period for everyone, and thanked employees for their resilience, professionalism and continued dedication. She said leadership would share more in the coming days about the company's future, and that a company-wide meeting will be held on November 18 at 9 a.m. Pacific Time, the day after Nvidia reports quarterly earnings on November 17.
Kress has served as Nvidia's chief financial officer since 2013 and is leading the transition as interim chief executive while continuing as CFO. The board has begun a formal search considering both internal and external candidates, and longtime director Harvey C. Jones has become the board's first dedicated chair.
