Nvidia's Jensen Huang Hires Paul Weiss After CEO Exit Amid Spy Allegations

news18.com —

Jensen Huang has retained law firm Paul Weiss after resigning as Nvidia CEO on Thursday, following over 30 years leading the AI chipmaker. His departure came amid reports alleging extramarital affairs with three women, including an Nvidia executive and a Chinese businesswoman suspected by US intelligence of being a spy. Paul Weiss, which has over 1,500 lawyers, signed a controversial deal with President Donald Trump last year, pledging $40 million in pro bono services. Its former chairman, Brad Karp, resigned in February over communications with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, though he has not been accused of wrongdoing. Republican House committee leaders have requested a closed-door interview with Huang next month, while Nvidia's board has appointed law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to conduct an independent investigation led by former federal prosecutor Joon Kim.
