US intelligence accuses Nvidia-linked executive of gathering information for Beijing
The New York Times reported that US intelligence agencies accused Alice Huang, a Chinese executive with close ties to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, of gathering information for Beijing. It was alleged that US President Donald Trump was briefed about the matter nearly a year ago but took no action.
According to classified intelligence findings cited by The New York Times, US intelligence agencies accused Alice Huang, a Chinese executive with close ties to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, of being an element of Chinese intelligence. The newspaper reported that Huang gathered information for Beijing.
The New York Times reported that US President Donald Trump was briefed about the allegations nearly a year ago but took no action. Jensen Huang was also not given a precautionary briefing about the potential intelligence threat.
Intelligence findings based on electronic surveillance
The findings, based on electronic surveillance, indicated that Alice Huang was an element of Chinese intelligence and had developed a close relationship with Jensen Huang. However, they did not establish what information Huang provided to Beijing or whether she had access to Nvidia’s sensitive information.
Alice Huang is not related to Jensen Huang. She is also known as Huang Le and held a senior position at Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed.
Nvidia describes contacts as commercial
Nvidia said its relationship with Alice Huang was part of routine commercial contacts. Company spokesperson John Rizzo said, "Meeting with customers is part of an executive’s job."
Rizzo also said Nvidia had not shared its sensitive trade secrets or national security information.
Megaspeed and Chinese Embassy deny allegations
Megaspeed said it had hired outside legal counsel to review the allegations and would cooperate with US authorities.
The Chinese Embassy in Washington described the allegations as "baseless smears and slander."
US authorities have investigated Megaspeed since late 2024 on suspicion of helping China circumvent US restrictions on advanced artificial intelligence chips. The investigation was transferred to the Justice Department earlier this year.
