Jensen Huang has reportedly admitted to an extramarital relationship with Alice Huang, who has been suspected by US intelligence officials of having links to Chinese intelligence.

Megaspeed denies illegal chip transfers

Megaspeed, which is known for developing AI data centres across South Asia, has said it has always operated in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

The company has described the allegations seriously and said it is committed to establishing the facts surrounding the claims.

It has also disputed reports alleging illegal transfers of Nvidia AI chips to China, claiming that inspections by US and Malaysian authorities, as well as Nvidia, found no evidence of illicit chip transfers or other illegal activities.

Megaspeed said it's "a core business partner of Nvidia's computing power cloud business in the Asia-Pacific region."

The company has threatened to take legal action against Bloomberg over its report on the issue. 

"We want to be absolutely clear: over the past six months, our company has undergone multiple on-site inspections and reviews by key institutions, including the Bureau of Industry and Security of the US Commerce Department, the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry of Malaysia, and NVIDIA," it said.

"These thorough investigations have confirmed that there has been no evidence of any violations concerning the illicit transfer of chips or any illegal activities, and this demonstrates that we are a compliant and legitimate company. We operate fully within the bounds of all applicable export control regulations and maintain the highest standards of legal and ethical conduct," it added.

Alice Huang's reported links to Jensen Huang

Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive, has come under scrutiny following reports about her alleged relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.

US intelligence officials reportedly suspected that she had been recruited by China's Ministry of State Security to gather information about the Nvidia chief and potentially influence the company's business interests in China.

The allegations have raised questions about national security, technology exports and corporate governance.

However, the espionage allegations remain unproven.
