Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang accused of affair with healthcare VP Kimberly Powell

cn.nytimes.com (Chinese) —

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has been accused of an affair with a female executive at the company, according to five former employees, adding to scrutiny he faces over a separate relationship with a woman linked to Chinese intelligence. The previously unreported relationship involves Kimberly Powell, Nvidia's vice president of healthcare, the sources said. Both Huang, 63, and Powell, 48, are married, and the affair has sparked internal discussion at the company, which prohibits conflicts of interest from personal relationships. Huang acknowledged the other affair last month, prompting a board investigation led by law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz. Republican leaders of three House committees have also requested a closed-door briefing on his ties to Alice Huang, whom U.S. officials identified as a Chinese spy. China denies the espionage claim.
