Megaspeed probes export practices after spying allegations involving former executive

SINGAPORE – Singapore-based technology firm Megaspeed International said on Thursday that it was investigating its own export practices following allegations that a former executive had spied for China while in an intimate relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.

"Megaspeed has retained a leading US law firm to lead a comprehensive census of its graphics processing units (GPUs) and independently verify its export control compliance practices," Chief Executive Officer Tan Yong Pong said in a statement.

"Megaspeed takes its compliance obligations under US export control laws extremely seriously. Compliance is a fundamental priority for the company, and Megaspeed is committed to working constructively and transparently with the US government," the statement added. –AFP
