Nvidia’s CEO to Miss China Trip After Year of Travels With Trump

The roster of business leaders invited to join President Donald Trump on his trip to China this week left off one notable, and surprising, name: Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang.

While more than a dozen other top executives including Apple Inc. CEO Tim Cook and Tesla Inc.’s Elon Musk made the cut for the business delegation, according to a White House official, Huang was not among those invited. A person familiar with the matter confirmed that Huang — whose company makes the world’s most sought-after AI chips — would not be accompanying the president on the China trip.
