Jen-Hsun Huang Named Best CEO of 2019
“When Jen-Hsun Huang co-founded NVIDIA in 1993, she focused on just one niche: building powerful computer chips to create high-speed video game graphics. When the company went public in 1999 and grew through the 2000s, video games continued to be its growth engine - but even there, Huang, a Taiwanese immigrant who studied electronic engineering at Oregon State and Stanford, saw a new path to follow. Data scientists began asking for computers that can perform sophisticated calculations much faster, so NVIDIA began investing billions of dollars in R&D to create chips that can support artificial intelligence applications.
In mid-2010, their AI-oriented chips came to dominate this nascent market, finding themselves inside autonomous vehicles, robots, drones, and dozens of other high-tech tools. A single glance at NVIDIA's stock chart shows how this gamble paid off: From late 2015 to late 2018, the company's stock grew 14 times - a performance that puts Huang, 56, at the top of the list. CEO with the best performance globally this year from HBR. ”, is mentioned in the article in the prestigious magazine.
