Bloomberg: Nvidia’s board will investigate whether CEO Jensen Huang was a foreign spy target after he admitted infidelity.
His staff memo says “I was unfaithful to my wife” without naming anyone.
US officials suspect a Chinese spy agency recruited her, while Megaspeed, based in Singapore, faces accusations of smuggling Nvidia chips into China.
Independent directors, helped by outside counsel, will oversee the probe, and the CEO keeps his job until it ends.
The board says it has no reason to believe national security or Nvidia secrets were compromised, a claim the inquiry must test.
BREAKING: axios reported that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted marital infidelity in a draft staff email, and the board ordered an independent investigation.
The relationship reportedly involved Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive whom US intelligence officials believed was passing information to Beijing.
“I was unfaithful to my wife,” Huang wrote, adding that he took “full responsibility” and had fallen short with employees, the board and shareholders.
So this completely reverses Nvidia’s earlier line, which described his contacts with her as routine meetings with a regional cloud customer.
Megaspeed has faced US scrutiny since late 2024, when inspectors found Nvidia chips still boxed at its Malaysian data center.
