House Chairs Ask Nvidia CEO to Brief Congress Over Ties to Alleged Chinese Spy
Nvidia’s chief executive, Jensen Huang, has been asked by three House committee chairs to give a closed-door briefing, following reports about his meetings with Alice Huang, a Megaspeed executive the chairs call a publicly reported Chinese intelligence asset. The letter from the chairs of the Foreign Affairs, China and Intelligence committees, released on November 5, 2026, asks Huang to explain those interactions and Nvidia’s protections against foreign espionage. Nvidia says the meetings were routine customer interactions. The chairs requested the briefing for November 18 and asked Huang to accept or propose another date by November 11. The allegations come from press reports and have not been proven. The incident highlights increasing scrutiny of semiconductor firms amid heightened U.S.–China tensions.
