According to BlockBeats, on November 15, a petition calling for Nvidia's board to restore Jensen Huang as CEO has surpassed 151,083 signatures, including 7,380 current employees, 1,381 former employees, and 80,205 shareholders. Notable public figures including Elon Musk, Tom Lee, and Replit CEO Amjad Masad have publicly signed the petition.
The development follows Nvidia's November 12 announcement that Huang stepped down from his CEO role effective immediately, ending his 33-year tenure leading the company he co-founded. Petition organizers have expressed concerns that Huang may have been forced out without due process and are calling for the board to provide evidence-backed explanations or reinstate him during an independent investigation.
