Nvidia Hires Law Firm Wachtell Lipton to Lead Jensen Huang Affair Probe
- On Sunday, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to an extramarital affair, prompting the NVIDIA Board to retain former acting U.S. Attorney Joon Kim and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate potential national security compromises.
- Reports in The New York Times and Financial Times link the woman involved to a Chinese intelligence operation, while authorities scrutinized Megaspeed for allegedly facilitating restricted chip sales to China.
- Alice Huang, identified by authorities as connected to Megaspeed, is alleged to be a spy for Beijing. The FBI is also conducting its own probe into the matter.
- Investors filed a proposed shareholder class action against Nvidia, and shares fell on Tuesday as investors expressed concern that the investigation could force Huang's departure from the company.
- The NVIDIA Board stated it retains confidence in Jensen and his leadership as the investigation continues. The probe will determine whether Huang's conduct compromised corporate secrets or national security regarding Nvidia's restricted chip exports.
