Colette Kress, who has been appointed as the temporary CEO of Nvidias, has been coordinating the activities of the Israeli chip manufacturers for a long time.
"My day starts with meetings in Israel, and only then I continue to California," she told "Globes" in 2023.
At that time, "Globes" reported that approximately 3,200 Nvidia employees - 12% of the workforce - were located in Israel, in centers in Kneam, Tel Aviv, Ra'anana, Tel Hai, Kiryat Gat and Be'er Sheva, after the purchase of the Israeli networking company Mellanox.
Kress called the deal "one of the best acquisitions I've seen in the industry."
