A report in the Harvard Business Review lists the top 100 performers and CEOs in the world and Jen-Hsun Huang of Nvidia has made number six in the list, way ahead of most of the rest of the pack.
Jen-Hsun formed Nvidia in 1993 but the company has come a long way from the days when it battled it out with ATI over top end graphics cards.
Huang's firm is now into cloud computing, cars that don't need drivers, and consumer electronics.
Apart from being consistently profitable, Nvidia is also developing silicon which allows vision and is concentrating on artificial intelligence as well as its traditional interest in gaming.
