Support for Jensen Huang's Return Surpasses 83,409 Signatures, Backed by Musk and Others

As of November 14, the petition website demanding NVIDIA's board restore Jensen Huang to his position has garnered 83,409 signatures, including 4,656 current employees, 806 former employees, and 44,547 shareholders. Notable public figures such as Elon Musk, Tom Lee, and Replit CEO Amjad Masad have publicly signed in support. NVIDIA announced on November 12, 2026, that Huang resigned as CEO, marking the end of his 33-year leadership tenure. Organizers and signers of the petition are concerned that Huang was forced to resign without due process and are calling for the board to reinstate him as CEO during an independent investigation, providing evidence-based explanations. The open letter emphasizes that accountability should be based on evidence and due process, rather than mob justice, and the campaign states it is independent, not endorsed by NVIDIA or Huang himself.
