GoKawiilReport: Jensen Huang Had Affair With Nvidia VP Kimberly Powell, a Direct Report
The New York Times reports Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had an extramarital relationship with Kimberly Powell, the company's vice president of health care, who reports directly to him. Sources told the Times the two were seen being affectionate at a San Jose hotel during an Nvidia conference in March, and that a bystander who filmed the moment was approached by Huang's security team and offered a nondisclosure agreement.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The disclosure comes as Huang already faces scrutiny over a separate alleged affair with a person described as a Chinese spy, compounding questions about his judgment and Nvidia's governance. Because Powell reports to Huang, the relationship could implicate Nvidia's own code of conduct barring conflicts of interest from personal relationships, and may feed into an existing shareholder lawsuit accusing the company of misleading investors.
