Nvidia partner Megaspeed's Asia footprint under U.S. scrutiny

Singapore-based cloud firm Megaspeed International faces U.S. scrutiny over allegedly sending billions of dollars in restricted Nvidia chips to China, with its de facto leader Alice Huang reportedly linked to Chinese intelligence and a close relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. The company, an Nvidia Cloud Partner in Asia-Pacific, saw assets surge to about $3 billion in 2024 from $33 million a year earlier, while revenue jumped to $294 million from zero. Singapore police opened an investigation in October 2025, though Megaspeed denies wrongdoing and says U.S., Malaysian, and Nvidia reviews found no violations. Megaspeed operates across Southeast Asia, including Malaysian entities Speedmatrix and MSFusion, which bought at least $4.8 billion in AI equipment, and an Indonesian subsidiary with customs records showing H100 GPU imports. The H100 has been export-restricted to China since August 2022.
