House Republicans Request Briefing from Nvidia CEO Regarding Reported Ties to Chinese Intelligence Asset

House Republican committee leaders have formally requested that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang attend a closed-door briefing on November 18. The request follows reports that U.S. intelligence identified Alice Huang, an executive at Megaspeed and a Chinese citizen, as an asset funneling information to Beijing who had developed a close relationship with the Nvidia chief. The lawmakers are seeking clarity on Huang's interactions with Alice Huang and Nvidia's internal security protocols regarding foreign espionage. While Nvidia maintains that its business meetings involve only ordinary customer information rather than sensitive trade secrets or national security data, the inquiry highlights growing congressional scrutiny over U.S. technology access by the People's Republic of China.
