WASHINGTON – Nvidia’s board is reportedly considering removing Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang following allegations of two extramarital affairs, including one involving a woman suspected of having links to Chinese intelligence.
According to the reports cited, the board could meet as early as Wednesday to discuss Huang’s future at the company, citing people familiar with the matter.
Separate allegations identified Kimberly Powell, Nvidia’s vice president of healthcare, as having had a relationship with Huang, based on accounts attributed to five company employees.
The reports surfaced days after Huang allegedly acknowledged being unfaithful to his wife.
Nvidia’s board is also reportedly investigating whether Huang may have been targeted by a foreign intelligence operation.
The allegations, potential board action and reported intelligence links have not been independently verified. No evidence establishing an intelligence connection was provided in the supplied account.
