Nvidia Board Investigates Jensen Huang Ties to Alice Huang After Spy Allegations - Bloomberg

The woman at the center of the case is named Alice Huang. She shares the same surname as CEO Jensen Huang, but they are not related.
According to the Financial Times, Alice Huang was born in Hunan Province, China, and worked as a journalist for the state-run broadcaster CCTV (China Central Television) before moving to Hong Kong in the mid-2000s, where she earned a master’s degree in media studies at Hong Kong Baptist University. Former classmates describe her as “popular, easygoing and ambitious.”
Alice Huang learned the fundamentals of finance at HSBC, then worked in a senior position at the Chinese investment company Citic Securities. While there, she was introduced to another Chinese investment company, Hexi Capital, and joined it in 2015. She is reportedly both the romantic and business partner of Hexi Capital founder Kang Wei.
Megaspeed is a company that was founded in 2015 under the name 7Road International.In March 2023, it changed its name to Megaspeed International and sold itself to a company called Huang Le Limited. Huang Le (Fuan Li) is an alias of Alice Huang, and Huang Le Limited is reportedly controlled by Alice Huang.
Alice Huang joined Megaspeed as a senior executive, but in November 2023 sold the company to a Singapore paper company. Within days of the sale, Megaspeed was named an official cloud partner of NVIDIA. Taking advantage of its status as a partner with priority access to NVIDIA chips, Megaspeed was offering companies computing capabilities using NVIDIA GPUs as of the time of writing.
Alice Huang’s current relationship with Megaspeed is unclear, but as of November 2026, the U.S. House Select Committee on China has mentioned Alice as a “Megaspeed executive.” According to employees and business partners interviewed by The Wall Street Journal, Alice Huang continued to act as a leader of the company after the sale and claimed to be Megaspeed’s CEO to a business partner in August 2025.
Alice Huang attended a meeting between the Megaspeed and NVIDIA teams in 2023 and, according to those present, made a “modest and quiet impression.” Alice Huang is said to have first met NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang publicly at NVIDIA’s annual event in early 2024, and the two reunited at Computex Taipei in June 2024. In May 2025, they were spotted dining with a group of technology-company executives at a restaurant in Taiwan. Videos and photographs taken at the time captured the two kissing each other on the cheek and getting into the same car as they left. Exactly when the two became close is not known.

Bloomberg reported in December 2025 that Alice Huang had been taken into custody by the Singapore police “a few months ago” for questioning and had also been barred from leaving Singapore. According to one source, Alice Huang has since been released and is cooperating with the police investigation.
After becoming an NVIDIA partner, Megaspeed’s transaction volume increased sharply, and at one point the value of its NVIDIA product imports exceeded S$5.9 billion (approximately ¥730 billion). It subsequently came under investigation by U.S. and Singaporean authorities on suspicion of smuggling NVIDIA chips into China. Megaspeed acknowledged that it had been investigated, but stated that “the investigation confirmed that there is no evidence whatsoever of improper transfers of chips or illegal activity,” and, explicitly naming Bloomberg as the outlet that reported the matter, adopted a firmly resolute stance, declaring that it would “not hesitate to take legal action.”
