- Its removal followed reports of Huang’s resignation.
- Colette Kress is interim CEO during the search for a successor.

## Summary

The commemorative plaque at a San Jose Denny’s marking the booth where Jensen Huang and two co-founders planned Nvidia’s creation has been removed. Its disappearance came a day after reports that Huang had resigned as chief executive following allegations about his personal conduct, though the article does not establish why the plaque was taken down.

Installed at a 2023 ceremony, the plaque called the booth “the booth that launched a $1 trillion company”. The diner is about eight miles from Nvidia’s headquarters, and Huang recalled that the founders met there to discuss a chip for realistic 3-D graphics on personal computers. Nvidia finance chief Colette Kress is serving as interim CEO while the company considers internal and external candidates for a permanent replacement.
