The American company Nvidia has launched an independent investigation after reports of possible relations between its CEO Jensen Huang and Chinese businesswoman Alisa Huang, whom U.S. intelligence considers a spy for Beijing. This was reported by the BBC.
The woman works at the Singaporean company Megaspeed, which specializes in data centers. Surveillance found her correspondence with Huang, but it is currently unknown what information she may have passed to China.
Nvidia said it sees no evidence of a leak of corporate secrets or a threat to U.S. national security. Huang himself confirmed that he had cheated on his wife, apologized to her and their children, and promised to cooperate with the investigation. China rejected the espionage allegations, calling them “groundless speculation.”
In September Huang accompanied Trump during his visit to Beijing. The purpose of the Nvidia CEO’s trip was negotiations to unblock the sale of the company’s chips on the Chinese market.
Commenting on the situation, Trump called Huang “a decent man,” noted his contribution to the development of the American AI industry, and said he had not discussed the espionage allegations with him.
