NextImg:Tech titans to dine with Trump in White House’s new-look Rose Garden

President Trump will be dining with tech executives in the newly renovated White House Rose Garden on Thursday night.

The guest list will include Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook, Microsoft Founder Bill Gates and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, the White House confirmed to The Washington Times.

The tech titans will gather in the Rose Garden after first lady Melania Trump’s second meeting of the White House’s Artificial Intelligence Education task force. Some of the members are expected to participate in that meeting.



The Hill was first in reporting the dinner.

The Rose Garden has a new look after the Trump team paved over the grassy lawn and set up tables and chairs with yellow striped umbrellas.

“The Rose Garden Club at the White House is the hottest place to be in Washington, or perhaps the world. The president looks forward to welcoming top business, political, and tech leaders for this dinner and the many dinners to come on the new, beautiful Rose Garden patio,” White House spokesman Davis Ingle said in a statement.

Other guests at the dinner will include Google co-founder Sergey Brin and CEO Sundar Pichai, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, OpenAI President Greg Brockman and Oracle CEO Safra Catz.

Blue Origin CEO David Limp, TIBCO Software Chairman Vivek Ranadive, Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra, Palantir Chief Technology Officer Shyam Sankar, Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang and Shift4 Payments CEO Jared Isaacman will also be in attendance.

One notable name left off the list is Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk. He was a familiar face around the White House during the first few months of the second Trump administration, but after a contentious departure as head of the Department of Government Efficiency, the world’s richest man has gone back to focusing on his companies.
