Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang called on Super Micro Computer to strengthen its export compliance controls after arriving in Taipei on Saturday, months after U.S. federal prosecutors charged the server maker's co-founder and two others with conspiring to smuggle approximately $2.5 billion worth of Nvidia-equipped servers to China through shell companies in Southeast Asia.
Huang told reporters at Songshan Airport that Nvidia insists its partners follow U.S. trade rules. "We insist our partners are compliant. We hope that they will enhance and improve their regulation compliance and prevent that from happening in the future," Huang said in an address to the media.
