Nvidia’s vision as a platform company makes its focus different from companies focusing on silicon or a specific chip for a certain workload, CFO Colette Kress says. The chip company finance chief, speaking at a Morgan Stanley conference, says a platform company is able to deliver any form of data center computing that may be needed in the future. “Our focus [is] to make sure at every data center level all of the different components we may be able to provide them, whether it would be the computing infrastructure, the networking infrastructure, the overall memory part of it, just overall full supercomputer we can put together,” Kress says. Shares rise 3.6% to $852.51, extending a run that has vaulted Nvidia into one of the most valuable companies.
