Jensen Huang said to have had relationship with Nvidia executive who reports to him
Huang is among a long list of CEOs of American companies who have had relationships with subordinates
Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, is facing scrutiny after it was revealed that he had an affair with an executive named Kimberly Powell, who reports to him. This information was disclosed by five people who work at the company and spoke anonymously to describe sensitive details. The relationship, which went public after being captured on video at a Nvidia conference in March, has raised concerns as both Huang and Powell are married to other people.
Nvidia's code of conduct prohibits personal relationships between managers and subordinates, and the company stated it promptly investigates reports of misconduct. After Huang acknowledged the affair, Nvidia's board initiated an investigation led by the law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, and Republican leaders of three House committees requested an appearance to discuss Huang's interactions with Powell.
China has denied the espionage allegations against the executive Powell was alleged to be having a relationship with, named Alice Huang.
