Suspected China spy linked to Nvidia's ex-boss left Megaspeed in 2025
Alice Huang, a suspected China spy linked to former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, left her executive role at Megaspeed in August 2025, the Singapore-based company said Sunday. Megaspeed, the largest buyer of Nvidia chips in Southeast Asia, announced an internal investigation into its business amid reports questioning whether advanced AI chips reached China despite US export restrictions. The company said it conducts "legitimate and lawful business" and retained external legal counsel. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent blamed the Commerce Department for failing to oversee high-end chip exports, noting agencies favored adding Megaspeed to the entity list months ago. Megaspeed is suspected of providing backdoor access to Nvidia chips via data centres in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.
