No named successor at Nvidia

Nvidia has no succession plan in place, according to TechCrunch, which published a speculative shortlist of possible successors to chief executive Jensen Huang on 12 November 2026.
The publication describes its list as highly unscientific, and no candidates are confirmed. TechCrunch also notes the chief executive is described as being in hot water, though the available material does not explain the circumstances.
Readers should treat the shortlist as commentary rather than confirmed company plans. Nvidia has not announced any leadership change, and the article offers no details on timing or candidates.
