## Key points

- Servers sold to a Singapore Nvidia partner reportedly ended up in Shanghai.
- The data centre is linked to a company founded by Alice Huang.
- The reported route raises questions about US chip export controls.

## Summary

Bloomberg reports that servers containing AI chips may have been diverted from Singapore to a data centre in Shanghai, potentially skirting US export controls. The report links the project to Alice Huang, who founded the Chinese company that received the hardware and is at the centre of a separate scandal involving Nvidia chief executive Jensen Huang.

The servers were reportedly first sold to Aperia Cloud Services, an Nvidia Cloud Partner headquartered in Singapore, but documents indicate they ended up with Huang’s company. Bloomberg says the Shanghai facility also appeared in a 2024 investor presentation by Megaspeed, where Alice Huang held a senior position. The article presents the alleged diversion as a report, not an established finding.
