Nvidia<\/a> CEO Jensen Huang<\/a> has agreed to join the advisory board of a Beijing university that counts Apple’s Tim Cook<\/a> as chair, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Huang, \u200cwho joined \u2060U.S. \u2060President Donald Trump on his recent visit to China<\/a>, has accepted an invitation from Tsinghua University<\/a> School of Economics and Management (SEM), an elite Chinese university attended by China’s senior politicians, to join its advisory board, the newspaper said.<\/p>\n

The reported move also comes amid a U.S. ban \u2060on exports \u200cof Nvidia’s most sophisticated chips to China that has been in place since 2022 over concerns \u2060about their potential military applications. There were no signs of a breakthrough on selling Nvidia’s advanced H200 AI chips to China following Trump’s trip. The 65-member SEM board was established in October 2000 and currently includes U.S. tech leaders such as Tesla<\/a>‘s Elon Musk, Dell’s Michael Dell, Microsoft’s Satya Nadella and \u200cMeta’s Mark Zuckerberg, as well as finance executives such as JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon and BlackRock’s Larry Fink, according to its website. Board \u2060members usually meet every year in Beijing.<\/p>\n

Chinese President Xi Jinping is among top politicians who attended Tsinghua<\/a> – sometimes dubbed “China’s Harvard” – as an undergraduate.<\/p>\n

Reuters could not immediately verify the report. Nvidia declined to comment while Tsinghua did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has agreed to join the advisory board of a Beijing university that counts Apple’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":89755,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[149],"tags":[250,574,575,48752,48753,1340,628,48751,8794,2812],"class_list":["post-89754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jensen-huang","tag-china","tag-jensen-huang","tag-nvidia","tag-semiconductor-ban","tag-technology-leaders","tag-tesla","tag-tim-cook","tag-tsinghua","tag-tsinghua-university","tag-u-s-china-relations"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/116650130087518657","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89754","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=89754"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89754\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/89755"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=89754"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=89754"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=89754"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
