US chip giant Nvidia is investigating claims that its CEO Jensen Huang has a close relationship with Alice Huang, formerly the managing director of the Singapore‑based data centre firm Megaspeed.
The New York Times reported that U.S. officials suspect Alice Huang has been employed by China’s intelligence service to gather intelligence.
China denied the allegations, calling them “entirely groundless, speculative and intended to smear and malign China”.
Nvidia states it has no reason to think its trade secrets or national‑security information were compromised, but will review all available information.
Asia correspondent Tessa Wong explains what is known about Alice Huang and her relationship with Jensen Huang.
