Whereabouts of Alice Huang linked to NVIDIA CEO remain unknown

The current location and identity of Alice Huang, who admitted to a relationship with NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, cannot be confirmed after her contact methods disappeared. While she was reported to be in China earlier this year, her professional history at Hunan TV and HSBC remains unverified.

The identity of Alice Huang (Chinese name Huang Le), who admitted to being in a relationship with NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, remains a mystery. While she is known to have entered the AI semiconductor business after working in media and finance—amid allegations of being a Chinese spy—basic personal information such as her age, place of origin, and educational background has not been confirmed. With her past career facing controversy regarding its authenticity and her current location remaining unclear, questions surrounding her movements continue to grow.

On the 9th (local time), the WSJ reported that Alice Huang's current whereabouts cannot be confirmed. Two sources who said they were in contact with her earlier this year stated that she was staying in China at that time, but it is unknown where she is or what she is doing now. Because almost no personal information has been made public and her means of contact have disappeared, it has become difficult to verify her identity.

Contacts between Alice Huang and Jensen Huang have been captured publicly several times since 2024. According to the WSJ, Alice Huang met CEO Jensen Huang at an annual NVIDIA event held in California, United States, in early 2024 in her capacity as the representative of the Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed. Later that year in June, the two appeared together at COMPUTEX TAIPEI held in Taiwan.

A photo posted on LinkedIn by NetThunder, an NVIDIA business partner, showed Alice Huang and Jensen Huang attending a party with senior executives from the server manufacturer GIGABYTE Technology. In May 2025, during Jensen Huang's visit to Taiwan, Alice Huang also dined with other technology company executives at a local restaurant. Video and photos from that time captured the two lightly kissing each other on the cheeks and leaving the restaurant in the same vehicle.

The FT reported that the two were photographed together not only in Taiwan but also at dinners in Shanghai, China, as well as in Hong Kong and California, United States. However, the FT explained that most of the released photos were taken in settings with multiple people, and no circumstances were confirmed from the photos themselves to prove an inappropriate relationship. This implies a need to distinguish between public allegations regarding their relationship and their actually confirmed movements.

Alice Huang is also reported to have been actively involved in business utilizing NVIDIA semiconductors. According to the FT, in early 2025, she proposed AI semiconductor-related deals to China-based investors, emphasizing her ability to secure NVIDIA GPUs and her relationship with the Chinese technology company Alibaba. It is reported that she did not publicly mention her intimate relationship with Jensen Huang during her business activities.

Singapore corporate registries show that Alice Huang served as a director of Megaspeed from March to November 2023. She remained involved in the company's management thereafter, and in August 2025, she reportedly introduced herself to a business partner as the CEO of Megaspeed. While some activities can be confirmed through official corporate records and testimonies from business associates, much of her career prior to that remains opaque.

The New York Post reported that a profile introducing Alice Huang as the managing director and fund manager of Shanghai Hexi Investment Management is registered on the Chinese private equity information site 'Simuwang'. The profile, posted with a photo of her in a red dress, states that she worked in the media industry for four years as a reporter for Hunan TV and CCTV, and subsequently worked in the securities industry for eight years, serving as an assistant to the head of the private banking division at HSBC and as a vice president of the securities business division at CITIC Securities.

However, this career history has raised doubts during the verification process. When the New York Post inquired with an executive at Hunan TV regarding Alice Huang's employment history, the executive reportedly replied, "I have never heard of such a person." The executive added, "If she actually worked as a reporter for Hunan TV, her name or profile could be easily confirmed on the company website." The New York Post stated that it could not find a reporter profile under the name Huang Le on the Hunan TV and CCTV websites.

HSBC and CITIC Securities also reportedly did not respond to requests for comment regarding Alice Huang's employment history. Based on the information released so far, it is difficult to clearly determine whether the career is factual or if parts of it are exaggerated or incorrectly recorded. A gap exists between her history of working across the Chinese media and financial industries and the records that can actually be verified.

Alice Huang's WeChat and email accounts are also reported to have been deleted. Even after admitting to her relationship with Jensen Huang, core information such as her age, education, past career, and current location remains unconfirmed. With her personal identity still veiled despite her disclosed business activities and several captured meetings, the suspicions and mysteries surrounding Alice Huang are not expected to be easily resolved for the time being.
