US intelligence agencies have placed a Chinese businesswoman at the center of an investigation, suspected of acting in the interests of Beijing and having established a close relationship with the head of technology giant Nvidia, Jensen Huang .

This is Alice Huang , who, according to a report by the prestigious newspaper The New York Times (NYT), is suspected of being involved in espionage activities in favor of China. The newspaper emphasizes that she is not related to Jensen Huang, despite the same surname.

According to the NYT, US intelligence agencies had been monitoring the Chinese businesswoman and, based on the information gathered, had concluded that she was acting on behalf of Beijing. For these claims, the newspaper referred to unidentified sources familiar with the investigation.

One of the elements that caught the attention of authorities was communication between Alice Huang and an American citizen, whose identity was revealed through a process known in intelligence terminology as “unmasking.” The person turned out to be Jensen Huang, the head of Nvidia.

However, the report does not provide full details on the nature of the relationship between them, nor does it present public evidence that definitively confirms the suspicions of espionage.

Alice Huang has not responded to the newspaper's requests for comment regarding the allegations.

It is linked to Megaspeed, a data center firm based in Singapore. After the report was published, the company's current executives told the NYT that they took the allegations seriously and had hired outside legal counsel to conduct an internal investigation.

The issue comes at a time of ongoing tensions between the US and China over technology, artificial intelligence and export controls for advanced chips, sectors in which Nvidia has a key role in the global market.
