Who is Alice Huang? The businesswoman linked to Jensen Huang and Nvidia
NEW YORK: Alice Huang had a long career in Chinese finance before later emerging as an executive in the global race for artificial-intelligence chips.
Alice Huang is a businesswoman with a lengthy career in Chinese finance. She is linked to Jensen Huang and Nvidia, a leading artificial-intelligence chip company. Huang, also known as Huang Le, had a high-ranking position at Megaspeed, a Singapore-based tech company that collaborated with Nvidia in the Asia-Pacific region. Speculations have arisen about her romantic relationship with Jensen Huang, which reportedly led to his resignation as Nvidia's CEO on November 12.
US and other government authorities have raised concerns that Huang might be spying for Beijing, although Reuters has been unable to verify these allegations. Singapore's home affairs ministry mentioned seizing Huang's passport in 2025 during an investigation that included accusations of buying servers and exporting them to Malaysia without proper export controls.
Huang left the country in February, and her re-entry has been prohibited by the ministry. Megaspeed, under Huang's leadership since March 2023, has cooperated with US inspections but has denied any violation of export control rules.
