Nvidia CEO skips Trump’s inauguration for Lunar New Year Asia visit, source says
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will miss the inauguration of US president-elect Donald Trump on January 20, marking a departure from the attendance of many other tech leaders. Huang is currently visiting East Asia, a trip he typically makes around the Lunar New Year. According to sources, this will not be his first absence from a presidential inauguration, as he has never attended one before.
This decision places Nvidia in contrast with other major technology companies, as many are sending their CEOs or co-founders to the inauguration, including Apple’s Tim Cook and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos. Huang had previously expressed a desire to meet Trump and contribute to the administration’s success, although he noted he had not been invited to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida prior to the inauguration.
