New Delhi: Nvidia co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang has become the subject of intense discussion following his resignation and reports of extramarital affairs. He has stepped down from his position. According to reports, U.S. President Donald Trump has advised Huang to fight to retain his role.
Reports indicate that U.S. President Donald Trump spoke with Jensen Huang by phone on Tuesday, urging him to fight to save his position at Nvidia.

Scrutiny Begins Over Trump-Huang Relationship
Jensen Huang has emerged as one of the most influential business executives within President Trump’s inner circle. He has frequently supported the administration’s artificial intelligence agenda and made several trips to Washington as Nvidia sought to expand its reach in the Chinese market.
During a visit to China in May, the Nvidia chief even traveled aboard Air Force One with President Trump. Furthermore, he attended a state dinner held at the White House in September in honor of Chinese President Xi Jinping. Trump has praised Huang on previous occasions, and earlier this year, Huang was awarded the National Medal of Science.
Huang resigned from his position on Thursday, effectively ending his association with the company he co-founded. Nvidia has announced that Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress will serve as interim CEO while the board searches for a permanent successor.
