“A person granted anonymity to discuss Nvidia’s strategy said the company is moving away from the “aggressive elements of the approach” that it once took in Washington. The person attributed the shift to new leadership in its federal affairs team, after Nvidia hired Bruce Andrews, a former Intel government affairs chief and Obama-era deputy Commerce secretary, as its chief external affairs officer in June. The office now handles outreach “in a way that actually builds allies versus enemies,” the person said.”
NEW: Nvidia is shifting its lobbying strategy as Jensen Huang’s scandal galvanizes support for chip export curbs. It’s leaning on tech allies and customers to make its case. For other tech co’s, capitalizing on Nvidia’s troubles is a new opportunity. politico.com/news/2026/11/10…
