Megaspeed confirms Alice Huang's exit as scrutiny over Nvidia chip links and Jensen Huang scandal grows
Singapore-based cloud computing company Megaspeed International has clarified that Alice Huang, the Chinese businesswoman at the centre of a controversy involving former Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang, left the company on August 30, 2025, and has no current role there.

"Ms. Alice Huang officially left Megaspeed effective August 30, 2025 and currently has no role with the Company," Megaspeed said in an emailed statement to CNBC on Sunday.

The clarification comes as the company faces renewed scrutiny over its business dealings and the movement of advanced Nvidia artificial-intelligence chips, amid allegations that its operations may have helped Chinese customers access processors restricted under US export controls.

Megaspeed, in a statement to CNBC on Sunday, said it had retained external legal counsel to examine media reports concerning its business, supply chain and global operations. The company disputed the allegations, saying they were not supported by verifiable evidence, and declined to comment on Huang's personal affairs.

The company, which operates cloud-computing infrastructure in Southeast Asia, allows customers to rent computing capacity powered by Nvidia graphics processing units. It has faced questions over whether advanced chips supplied through its operations were diverted to customers in China, potentially circumventing US export restrictions.

Separately, reports by US media have alleged that Huang was suspected of having links to Chinese intelligence. Beijing has rejected the allegations, while US Attorney General Todd Blanche said on November 12 that the Justice Department had not reached a conclusion on whether she was a Chinese spy. The allegations have not been independently established.

The developments have put Megaspeed's Nvidia relationship under greater scrutiny. The company has said it takes compliance with US export-control rules and regulations in the countries where it operates seriously.
