🔸 The American company Nvidia, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of advanced chips, announced that it has begun independent investigations in the wake of reports about CEO Jensen Huang’s connection to a woman suspected of spying for China.

🔸 On Sunday, 17 Aban, the Nvidia board of directors said in a statement that these investigations are intended to examine reports about the possibility that the company’s CEO was targeted in a foreign intelligence operation.

🔸 Nvidia’s board has emphasized that so far there is no reason to believe that the company’s trade secrets or the national and economic security of the United States has been put at risk, but all available information will be reviewed.

🔸 According to CNN, the investigations began after U.S. officials raised concerns about Huang’s close relationship with Alice Huang, a former executive of the Singapore-based company Megaspeed.

🔸 The woman has no family relationship with Nvidia’s CEO and is suspected of collaborating with Chinese intelligence entities and participating in the illegal transfer of advanced AI chips to that country.
