U.S. officials believe Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based Megaspeed, acted as an agent for Chinese intelligence to gather information on the chief executive of Nvidia. To gain access to Taiwan, Huang used a passport from Hong Kong, according to the island’s immigration agency.
The investigation into Huang’s travel documents follows disclosures regarding her personal relationship with Jensen Huang, who has admitted to having an affair with her. The case focuses on whether the former Megaspeed executive leveraged that connection to facilitate espionage for the Chinese government.
