Nvidia Corp. chief Jensen Huang is embarking on a trip to China this week, visiting major cities at a time Beijing is investigating his company’s domestic presence and Washington is slapping new curbs on the sale of its AI chips abroad.

The Nvidia chief executive officer is due to arrive in Shenzhen for employees’ annual Lunar New Year celebrations around Jan. 15, days before President-elect Donald Trump gets sworn in for a second term, people familiar with the matter said. The co-founder also plans to visit Shanghai and Beijing, the people said, asking not to be named discussing private matter. And he will fly to Taipei later this week, another person familiar with his travel plans said.
