NVIDIA’s board has launched an independent investigation, overseen by a committee of independent directors and outside counsel, after reports that CEO Jensen Huang was targeted by a foreign intelligence effort involving an executive at Megaspeed. U.S. intelligence agencies suspect the executive of gathering information for Beijing, and House Republican committee leaders have requested a closed-door briefing. The board said it currently believes no U.S. national-security information or NVIDIA secrets were compromised; Huang is cooperating with the review.
