Nvidia’s CEO accompanies US business leaders on a China trip as the company awaits regulatory approval for its H200 chips.
Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang will travel to China this week as part of President Donald Trump’s delegation, which includes over a dozen US business leaders. The visit comes as Nvidia’s H200 chips remain unapproved for sale in China, despite Huang’s inclusion in the trip after not appearing on the initial White House list.
The delegation’s focus includes trade discussions, though Nvidia’s participation highlights ongoing tensions over semiconductor exports. China has yet to grant clearance for the H200 chips, a critical product for Nvidia’s expansion in the region. Previous US restrictions have limited chip sales to Chinese firms, complicating Nvidia’s market access.
No immediate market reaction was reported, but the trip underscores the intersection of geopolitics and technology supply chains.
