Rene Haas—Publicly criticized US export controls on China as 'not good' for industry
At the Founders Forum Global conference in Oxford in June 2025, ARM CEO Rene Haas said US export controls on China 'threaten to slow overall technological advances' and are 'bad for consumers and companies.' He aligned with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in opposing the controls, stating 'If you narrow access to technology and you force other ecosystems to grow up, it's not good. It makes the pie smaller.' ARM derives approximately 20-25% of revenue from China.
