Nvidia board hires top law firm to probe CEO Jensen Huang's ties to Singapore firm
Nvidia's independent board has hired law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate CEO Jensen Huang over allegations involving a suspected Chinese intelligence operation and potential security breaches. Led by former acting US Attorney Joon H. Kim, the probe will examine possible security breaches, Nvidia's business dealings with Singapore-based Megaspeed International, and conflicts of interest. The investigation follows revelations about Huang's relationship with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive suspected of possible intelligence links. Nvidia maintains there is no evidence of a security breach, and Huang has pledged full cooperation. The inquiry also covers whether Megaspeed received preferential chip access and whether Huang disclosed potential conflicts, amid broader scrutiny of Nvidia's China dealings.
