## Summary

Governments across Asia are assessing the effects of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s reported departure, with South Korea confirming chip supply plans and Taiwan saying a planned headquarters remains on track. The responses reflect Nvidia’s importance to regional AI industries and uncertainty around projects that depend on its processors.

China rejected claims that a businesswoman linked to Huang was a spy and said it was unaware of reports about restricted Nvidia chips reaching a Shanghai data centre. Chinese AI projects worth more than $3 billion reportedly rely on such processors. Singapore said its investigation into Megaspeed and six others remains ongoing, while South Korea said Nvidia reaffirmed plans to supply 260,000 advanced GPUs; Japan said it would monitor the company.
