Megaspeed confirms Alice Huang no longer works for firm after alleged affair with axed Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang
Singapore-based Megaspeed release statement about the woman at the centre of security concerns around Nvidia's former chief executive.
Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang, whose ties to former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang raised US national security concerns, officially left Megaspeed more than a year ago, the company says.
The Singapore-based cloud-computing company is one of Nvidia’s business partners in the Asia-Pacific region and has been in the spotlight after reports Jensen Huang had an affair with former Megaspeed executive Alice Huang, whom US authorities suspect of being a Chinese spy.
“Megaspeed does not comment on Ms Huang’s personal and private matters,” the company said in a statement on Sunday.

In October 2025, the New York Times reported Megaspeed was under US investigation over whether it helped Chinese customers obtain Nvidia computer chips subject to Washington’s export controls.
China has denied the allegation and Megaspeed has not been found to have violated the rules.
“Megaspeed is aware of recent media reports containing assertions about our business, supply chain and global operations that are not supported by verifiable evidence,” it said in its statement.
The company said it conducted “legitimate and lawful business” and had retained external legal counsel to undertake a thorough internal investigation.
It added that its operations and supply chain controls were designed to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including US export-control requirements.
Alice Huang became the controlling shareholder of Megaspeed in March 2023, according to Washington-based research group C4ADS, which reviewed corporate records.
The US government and Nvidia did not respond immediately to Reuters requests for comment on Megaspeed’s statement.
Nvidia chief Jensen Huang stepped down after revelations of extramarital affairs, including one involving suspected Chinese spy Ms Huang, plunged the company into crisis and set the stage for tougher restrictions on chip exports to China.
His resignation left the artificial intelligence industry without its biggest champion and clouded the future of the chip maker he built into an AI powerhouse.
The US company said on Thursday chief financial officer Colette Kress would take over as interim chief executive as Nvidia looked for a permanent successor.
