Nvidia ex-CEO Jensen Huang misled lawyers about affair with Alice Huang

business-standard.com —

Former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang misled company leaders, including general counsel Tim Teter and chief marketing officer Alison Wagonfeld, about his affair with Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, according to internal correspondence reviewed by Reuters. Huang resigned Thursday following the revelations. In October messages, Huang described his interactions with Alice Huang, a former executive at Nvidia customer Megaspeed International, as standard business dealings. He also discussed legal action against the New York Times over its October article about their public meetings, though no lawsuit was filed. The US was investigating Alice Huang for potentially spying for China, which Beijing denies. Huang apologized Sunday for being unfaithful to his wife and disappointing the company. Nvidia's stock has dropped over 30% since October 6, erasing more than $1.8 trillion in market value.
