Nvidia says it has Trump administration green light to sell China its advanced H20 computer chips used for AI

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says the technology giant has won approval from the Trump administration to sell its advanced H20 computer chips used to develop artificial intelligence to China — a reversal of administration policy. The news came in a company blog post late Monday. Huang also spoke about the coup on China’s state-run CGTN television network in remarks shown on X. “The U.S. government has assured Nvidia that licenses will be granted, and Nvidia hopes to start deliveries soon,” the post said. “Today, I’m announcing that the U.S. government has approved for us filing licenses to start shipping H20s,” Huang told reporters in Beijing. He noted that half of the world’s AI researchers are in China. “It’s so innovative and dynamic here in China that it’s really important that American companies are able to compete and serve the market here in China,” he said. The White House said in April that it would restrict sales of Nvidia’s H20 chips and AMD’s MI308 chips to China. Huang recently met with President Trump and other U.S. policymakers and is in Beijing this week to attend a supply chain conference and speak with Chinese officials. The broadcast showed Huang meeting with Ren Hongbin, the head of the China Council for Promotion of International Trade, host of the China International Supply Chain Expo, in which Nvidia is an exhibitor. Wall Street analysts said getting the nod to sell advanced chips to China is a significant boost for Nvidia and will help it compete.
