Megaspeed International, a company with a puzzling corporate structure, has been linked to the downfall of Nvidia chief Jensen Huang. Huang resigned as chief executive of the chip manufacturer Nvidia on Friday, 13 November 2026, following reports of extramarital affairs with an alleged Chinese spy and two company employees.
US intelligence agencies reportedly believe Huang was targeted by Alice Huang (no relation), the former director of Megaspeed International. US officials believe Huang was acting as a Chinese intelligence asset, passing commercial information to Beijing, according to reports.
Megaspeed International, registered in Singapore, has registered affiliates across the US, Asia, and Australia. Its global presence includes a lottery retailer in rural Australia, a dilapidated storefront in Kuala Lumpur, and a near-empty office in Singapore. Individuals at its offices reportedly state they know nothing about the cloud computing firm at the centre of a global spy scandal.
Singaporean authorities stated on Thursday, 12 November 2026, that Alice Huang had been barred from re-entering the city state after a 2025 investigation into Megaspeed. Singapore police had been investigating the company since October 2025 over “suspected breaches of our domestic laws” after a US senator requested an investigation into whether the firm had diverted Nvidia chips. Malaysia also announced on Friday, 13 November 2026, that it is investigating a Megaspeed International subsidiary over the possible diversion of advanced AI chips.
