Megaspeed also maintained that its business activities were legitimate and lawful. It said it had engaged external legal counsel to carry out a comprehensive internal investigation.
Singapore-based cloud computing firm Megaspeed has said Chinese businesswoman Alice Huang ceased working with the company on August 30, 2025, distancing itself from the controversy surrounding her alleged links to Chinese intelligence and Nvidia founder Jensen Huang.
In its first public response to the controversy, the company said Alice Huang no longer held any position there and declined to comment on her personal affairs. The statement was shared with CNBC on Sunday.
“Ms. Alice Huang officially left Megaspeed effective August 30, 2025 and currently has no role with the Company. Megaspeed does not comment on Ms. Huang’s personal and private matters,” the company said.
Megaspeed also maintained that its business activities were legitimate and lawful. It said it had engaged external legal counsel to carry out a comprehensive internal investigation.
Megaspeed under scrutiny over Nvidia connections
The company has come under increased scrutiny following reports about alleged extramarital relationships involving Nvidia founder Jensen Huang, including one with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive.
Megaspeed describes itself as a key business partner of Nvidia’s computing power cloud business in the Asia-Pacific region. According to information on its website, it offers customised computing services covering Nvidia’s entire range of graphics processing units (GPUs).
The company has also attracted attention from US investigators. American authorities have reportedly been examining its activities since 2024 over suspicions that it may have functioned as a front for moving restricted Nvidia artificial intelligence chips into China.
Singaporean authorities, including the country’s Ministry of Home Affairs, have also initiated an investigation. Megaspeed has denied any wrongdoing.
What is the allegation against Alice Huang?
Alice Huang, a Chinese national formerly associated with Megaspeed, has been identified by US intelligence agencies as an alleged Chinese intelligence asset who gathered information for Beijing, according to a report by The New York Times.
The newspaper reported that she was allegedly recruited by China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), the country’s principal civilian intelligence agency, as part of an operation targeting Jensen Huang and Nvidia.
The allegations have placed the relationship between the former Megaspeed executive and the Nvidia founder under the spotlight.
Jensen Huang resigned on November 12
The controversy has also coincided with reports about Jensen Huang’s alleged extramarital relationships. He resigned from his position on November 12, according to the Hindustan Times report.
Megaspeed’s latest statement appears aimed at clarifying that Alice Huang has had no association with the company since August 2025, while the wider allegations involving Nvidia, the Chinese businesswoman and suspected intelligence activity remain under investigation.
