What Megaspeed announced
Megaspeed, a Singapore-based cloud computing firm with offices in Singapore and Indonesia, told CNBC Alice Huang departed the firm in August 2025. In an emailed statement, it said, "Ms. Alice Huang officially left Megaspeed effective August 30, 2025 and currently has no role with the Company," adding that it does not comment on her "personal and private matters."
On Sunday, the company said it has launched an internal review of media coverage related to its business and supply chain, and that it has retained outside counsel to run a "thorough internal investigation."
Why scrutiny intensified
Attention around Megaspeed picked up after former Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted infidelity to his wife after stories connected him to ex-Megaspeed executive Alice Huang. According to the New York Times, U.S. intelligence officials judge Alice Huang to be a Chinese intelligence asset. Amid the uproar, Jensen Huang stepped down as Nvidia's CEO on Nov. 12; coverage centered on his affairs, including a relationship reportedly involving a direct report.
Megaspeed's role and its compliance stance
Megaspeed describes itself as a "core business partner" to Nvidia's regional cloud service, offering customers the ability to rent compute supplied by Nvidia GPUs - graphics processing units. Previously, it faced attention from both the press and government agencies questioning whether chips provided via its platform ended up with customers in China.
The company stated the newest coverage concerning its business, supply chain, and worldwide operations lacks verifiable substantiation. It also stated, "Megaspeed designs and maintains its global operational and supply-chain control frameworks to comply with all applicable laws and regulatory regimes, including United States export control requirements and local jurisdiction rules in every market where we operate," and it plans to review the coverage and update stakeholders as appropriate.
