Copy/paste the link below: Copy/paste the article video embed link below: Updated: 12 November 2026 - 15:52 GMT+1 Alice Huang, also known as Huang Le, is a Chinese businesswoman who has been at the centre of allegations involving a suspected Chinese intelligence operation targeting Nvidia and its former CEO, Jensen Huang. ADVERTISEMENT ADVERTISEMENT US intelligence agencies believed she had been recruited by Beijing to gather information on one of the world's most valuable technology companies. Alice Huang and Jensen Huang share a surname but are not related. She previously held a senior position at Megaspeed International, a Singapore-based data centre company that rents computing power to businesses developing and running AI systems. Megaspeed described itself as a key business partner of Nvidia's cloud computing operations in the Asia-Pacific region. Photographs from a technology industry event in 2024 showed the two sitting together. In May 2025, they also attended a dinner hosted by Jensen Huang in Taipei during the Computex technology expo. Video footage from the restaurant showed Jensen Huang putting his arm around Alice Huang as she kissed him on the cheek. They were later seen leaving in the same car. Jensen Huang acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife and apologised to his family and colleagues. Nvidia's board subsequently launched an independent investigation into the matter. On Thursday, November 12, Jensen Huang resigned as Nvidia's CEO and board member after 33 years leading the company. Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress was appointed interim CEO. Separately, Singapore's authorities confirmed that Alice Huang had been investigated over possible offences involving the purchase and export of servers through Singapore. She left the country in February and was subsequently barred from re-entering. Authorities said the investigation was not related to espionage and that there was insufficient evidence to establish that she had committed an offence. She was issued a stern warning over information provided to investigators.
