Singapore, 15 November 2026 – Singapore-based investor Leo KoGuan said on 13 November 2026 that he would not add to his investment in NVIDIA Corporation without co-founder Jensen Huang at the helm. KoGuan said he had invested about USD 1.3 billion in the chipmaker, a figure that has not been independently verified. Nvidia’s board accepted Huang’s resignation on 11 November and announced the leadership change the following day. Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress is serving as interim chief executive.
For Asian technology investors and companies that rely on Nvidia products, KoGuan’s decision illustrates how a founder’s departure can change one investor’s willingness to commit more capital. It does not establish that he sold his existing shares, that other investors will follow him or that Nvidia has changed its commercial plans. Nvidia’s filing confirms a management transition. KoGuan’s comments describe his response to it, not an assessment issued by the company.
