Tom Petersen leaves Nvidia after 14 years

by on01 April 2019


Most likely going to Intel

Tom TAP Petersen has confirmed he is leaving Nvidia, and with Intel gathering troops, it is most likely that Tom will be joining the blue team.

While Nvidia has plenty of technical marketing guys, Tom Petersen was one of the most dedicated ones and probably the most familiar face around, hosting numerous Q&As and providing tech media with all the needed information.

A quick check over at Linkedin shows that Tom Petersen was with Nvidia for almost 14 years, working as Director of Technical Marketing from July 2005, and Distinguished Engineer for the last five years. Confirming that March 29th was his last day at Nvidia, Tom Petersen has posted a brief message on its Facebook account.

"Today was my last day as an NVIDIA employee. I'll miss them. They carried me through some tough times and I am eternally grateful."

While Tom did not confirm where he will be moving on next, he did say to some members of the press, including Hothardware's Editor-in-Chief, Dave Altavilla, "We will see each other again".

With Intel gathering some of the big names in both the graphics as well as media industry, we wouldn't be surprised to see Tom there as well, and it would be a big win for Intel.

We wish Tom all the best in his next venture, whatever it may be, and we are sure he will surely be missed at Nvidia keynotes.
