Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has announced that the chipmaking giant will continue to sponsor H-1B visas for foreign workers and will absorb the new, hefty $100,000 fee imposed by a recent White House executive order, Reuters reported Tuesday.
In an internal memo to staff, Huang, an immigrant himself, emphasized the critical role of legal immigration in the company's success, stating that "the miracle of Nvidia... would not be possible without immigration,” Reuters reported.
He framed the move as essential for ensuring the U.S. continues to attract exceptional talent and lead in technology and innovation.
