## Summary

Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang returned to the company’s Santa Clara headquarters after telling employees he had had an affair. At a regular meeting with senior executives, he apologised, took no questions and moved on to business, seeking to maintain a normal routine as the company faces scrutiny.

Nvidia’s board has hired the law firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz to investigate. Employees described the mood as sad and said some were shocked, particularly as many had regarded Huang as a guiding figure. Huang co-founded Nvidia in 1993; its central role in the AI boom and his support for selling more AI chips to China have brought added attention to the disclosure.
