Woman accused of spying on Nvidia chief visited Taiwan eight times

Taiwan says Alice Huang visited the island eight times in 2024 and 2025, according to a government minister.

Huang is accused of spying for Beijing during an affair with Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang.

The allegations have not been established, and Beijing has rejected them.

Taiwan said she entered on a Hong Kong passport as a standard business visitor, with no special security flags at the time.

A Taiwanese minister said his council had not received information that would have led it to increase checks on her.

The case matters because Taiwan is a major chip producer at the centre of strategic competition between the United States and China.

Taiwanese security agencies are investigating, but officials have not publicly said whether Huang is suspected of a criminal offence.
