Nvidia’s board is preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang , its founder and chief executive after he had two extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy.
The board is preparing to meet as soon as today to determine his future, people familiar with the matter said.
Huang, a co-founder of Nvidia, is seen by many as the face of the AI arms race. Known for his leather jackets and near-constant appearances at conferences and events all around the globe, he spoke with the confidence of a salesman who had just what the world wanted—and he did. Nvidia provides the key component to what many believe is the next industrial revolution.
Then, on Sunday, Huang acknowledged in a letter to staff that he had been unfaithful to his wife and apologized for violating their trust. That affair involved Alice Huang, an executive at the Singapore-based data company Megaspeed, which has been a major Nvidia customer and who U.S. intelligence officials believe is working for China’s intelligence services
The Nvidia CEO also had an affair with an employee, according to a person familiar with the matter. The New York Times earlier reported the second affair.
Nvidia’s Jensen Huang allegedly caught on camera being affectionate with Nvidia’s vice president of health care, according to The New York Times.
The report comes after he was accused of having a relationship with an alleged Chinese spy.
Huang is now also accused of having an extramarital relationship with Nvidia’s vice president of health care, Kimberly Powell, who is also married, according to The Times.
The outlet reports that Huang and Powell were caught on camera being “affectionate” during a conference at a hotel in San Jose, California.
Powell was promoted to senior director of AI business development in 2016 before being appointed vice president of health care in 2017. She reportedly reports to Huang.
During the conference, a bystander allegedly caught Huang and Powell on camera. Huang’s security sequestered the individual before making an offer to sign a nondisclosure agreement, according to the NYT.
