Nvidia announces probe into Huang amid reports China spied on him
In a message to company employeess, Jensen Huang acknowledged having an affair and apologized to both his family and company staff
The Nvidia board is currently investigating allegations of Chinese espionage targeting CEO Jensen Huang, according to Bloomberg. The investigation began with reports that Huang was having an affair with Alice Huang, an executive at Megaspeed International. It is alleged that Alice Huang worked for Beijing’s Ministry of State Security, which reportedly sought information about Nvidia’s intelligence chips and tried to persuade Huang to ship its most advanced semiconductors to China.
Huang has admitted to the affair in a memo to Nvidia staff, expressing remorse for his actions. The board states that there is no evidence to suggest that national security or Nvidia's secrets were compromised, but they will conduct a comprehensive investigation to ensure the company's safety. Huang has pledged his support for the investigation, emphasizing his commitment to protecting Nvidia and American national security.
