How Nvidia boss Jensen Huang’s affair with suspected Chinese spy was exposed
The Nvidia controversy surrounding CEO Jensen Huang has moved far beyond a personal scandal.
What began as a story about an alleged relationship is now raising wider questions about AI chips, export controls, China, corporate governance, and the risks facing executives who lead strategically important technology companies.
Nvidia’s board announced today it opened a probe into Chief Executive and co-founder Jensen Huang after he acknowledged an affair with a woman US officials say was working for Chinese intelligence.
Late last month, it emerged that US intelligence officials concluded that the woman, a Chinese executive linked to a Singapore-based data centre company called Megaspeed, had been funnelling information to Beijing.
In a message to company employees released Sunday, Huang acknowledged having an affair and apologised to his family and company staff.
“I was unfaithful to my wife,” he said. “My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.”
But how did this all come out, and what comes next in the Nvidia scandal? Here’s a breakdown.
