Kimberly Powell, Nvidia's 48-year-old vice president for healthcare, has been named in a New York Times report alleging an extramarital relationship with CEO Jensen Huang. Powell, who joined Nvidia in 2008 and reports directly to Huang, has not publicly commented.
The report, citing five people familiar with the company, alleged that the pair were seen showing affection at a San Jose hotel during Nvidia's GTC conference in March.
The newspaper said it had not independently seen the video reportedly recorded at the hotel. Neither Huang nor Nvidia provided substantive comments.
The allegations have raised potential corporate governance concerns because Powell reports directly to Huang. Questions remain about the reported video's existence, the relationship's timeline and whether the board's investigation will examine the matter.
