Nvidia's marketing and PR strategies and campaigns have always been second to none, but ironically, the company has never had a dedicated chief marketing officer (CMO), as people who were in appropriate teams have reported to vice presidents of marketing. Instead of training a special AI model for the job, Nvidia has recruited former Google executive Alison Wagonfeld as its first CMO, reports the Wall Street Journal.
"After nearly 10 years of building Google Cloud from a promising start-up in 2016 to a thriving $60 billion run-rate business today, I will be leaving Google in late January to join Nvidia as its Chief Marketing Officer," Wagonfield wrote in a LinkedIn post. "I am excited to be joining Jensen's leadership team in a new role heading up marketing and communications as NVIDIA embarks on its next phase of growth."
