The Nvidia Way: Jensen Huang and the Making of a Tech Giant

It's a good book and has to be looked at from different perspectives. In any event, a story is being told here at the pace of a thriller. If you are a layman with a curious mind, and wish to know which way your world is moving, then this maybe the book for you. Enjoy. If you are a budding entrepreneur, then this is certainly a book for you. Believe me, this will not guarantee your success in any manner, but will contribute to it. If your are 'intrapreneur', pick up this book. Motivation guaranteed. Learn. After the niceties, let me come to the part which put me off. The author is either infatuated with Jensen Huang or has a different motivation to sing the 'Jensen Hymns'. The tautological praises he heaps on practically every third page made me nauseous. It's for this reason that I knocked a point off. Don't get me wrong; Jensen deserves the praise but let's not elevate a human to the level of divinity.

I’m not finished with the book yet, but what stands out the most to me is how it seamlessly integrates valuable business management insights at the ground level, all while telling the most interesting story of how Nvidia managed to stay afloat and outmaneuver larger competitors. Btw if you are thinking of buying this book I recommend: " Asianometry interview with tae kim " on YouTube...

Worth reading, a lot to learn over tech management and resilience and amazing Corporate culture that attracts the best in their class every time

I found that this was an instructive book for those who want to better understand some of the traits that have made Jensen Huang, one of the most innovative and forward thinking CEOs in the tech industry. The book also reminds one that success takes perserverance as well as an ability to double down on opportunity when others around you might see only risk.

I love reading about leaders in tech. This one made me go out and buy stocks in Nvidia

Muy bien escrito, con mucha información.

Tae Kim’s The NVIDIA Way is one of the most insightful and timely books written about modern technology leadership. For me, as an entrepreneur and long-term investor based in Princeton, the book has been profoundly meaningful. It not only deepened my understanding of NVIDIA’s extraordinary journey, but also sparked new conversations among my business partners about the future of innovation, leadership, and long-term value creation. More than a corporate story, this book illuminates the remarkable rise of Jensen Huang—arguably the most successful tech entrepreneur of our time. Few leaders have impacted global technology, industry, and society as deeply as he has. Under his vision, NVIDIA evolved from a small graphics startup facing existential challenges to becoming the defining company of the AI century, shaping fields as diverse as robotics, healthcare, climate science, transportation, and supercomputing. What makes the book so powerful is how Tae Kim explains not just what NVIDIA achieved, but how. He captures Jensen Huang’s leadership philosophy—rooted in first-principles thinking, humility, endurance, and an almost spiritual devotion to engineering excellence. These are lessons that resonate deeply with entrepreneurs like myself who build and invest for the long run. The book has had a tremendous impact on my own work and thinking. It provided a framework for understanding how to build organizations that can survive adversity, reinvent themselves, and compound strengths over decades. My business partners and I have frequently discussed the themes in this book as we work to build companies grounded in purpose, innovation, and long-term competitive advantage. The clarity of Jensen Huang’s principles—patience, technical depth, truth-seeking, and cultural integrity—has reinforced our belief that mission-driven leadership is more important today than ever. For investors, the book offers invaluable insight into how enduring value is created in the age of AI. NVIDIA’s success is not a result of luck or timing—it is the direct outcome of long-term thinking, full-stack innovation, and a culture that refuses to compromise on excellence. In an era where innovation cycles are accelerating, understanding the philosophy behind companies like NVIDIA is essential for anyone seeking to identify the next great compounding businesses. For entrepreneurs, the book is a roadmap for building a company with soul. It shows that great companies are not built by chasing trends, but by solving real problems with courage, curiosity, and integrity. Jensen Huang’s story is a rare example of how technical vision, emotional resilience, and strategic precision can come together to create world-changing impact. Tae Kim has given us not only the definitive book on NVIDIA, but a timeless guide for leaders and investors navigating the most transformative period in modern history. It is required reading for: • Entrepreneurs aiming to build lasting companies • Investors seeking long-term compounding opportunities • Students and engineers inspired by technological breakthroughs • Anyone who wants to understand the forces shaping the 21st century For me and my partners, The NVIDIA Way has become a foundational text—one that we will return to again and again as we pursue our mission in the age of AI and intelligent creation.
