Are Alice and Jensen Huang related?

They share one of the most common Chinese surnames, but that is where any connection ends. As established in an earlier answer on Alice Huang, they share a common Chinese surname but are not related. Huang is roughly the Chinese equivalent of "Smith" in terms of how widely it is spread across China's population, so two people named Huang meeting in a business context is about as meaningful as two people named Johnson shaking hands at a conference.

Jensen Huang was born in Tainan, Taiwan, and his family roots are Taiwanese. Alice Huang, also known by her Chinese name Huang Le, is a Chinese citizen with a career background in Chinese state media and finance. No reporting from the New York Times, the Financial Times, the New York Post or any other outlet covering this story has found any family connection, shared ancestry or personal history between them before their first documented encounter at a bar in Taipei after a technology trade show.
