Congratulations to our alumnus, Michael Kagan (Class of 1981), Chief Technology Officer of NVIDIA, on being awarded the prestigious Technion Alumni Medal at a special ceremony held as part of the President’s Event.

The medal is awarded to Technion graduates whose outstanding achievements in science, engineering, and technology have made a significant contribution to society, industry, and the State of Israel.

A graduate of our Faculty, Kagan has played a key role in three major technological revolutions: from the development of Intel’s Pentium processors, through the founding of Mellanox and the advancement of high-performance networking technologies for data centers, to his current role at NVIDIA, where he leads the design of computing infrastructures that enable breakthrough innovations in artificial intelligence.

A true source of faculty pride!
