September 02, 2025 - President Donald Trump hosted a dinner at the White House on Thursday night with top tech CEOs, where he secured substantial commitments for U.S. investments. The event, held behind closed doors, brought together leaders from major tech companies including Apple, Meta, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI.

During the dinner, Trump asked each CEO about their plans to invest in the U.S. Apple CEO Tim Cook pledged $600 billion, while Meta's Mark Zuckerberg matched the same figure. Google's Sundar Pichai stated that Google's investments would exceed $100 billion and reach $250 billion over the next two years. Microsoft's Satya Nadella confirmed an investment of $75-80 billion this year.

Trump praised these commitments, emphasizing the job creation and economic boost these investments will bring to the U.S. He highlighted the importance of these investments in securing the country's dominance in cutting-edge tech sectors and ensuring the U.S. keeps an edge over rivals like China.

The dinner took place in the White House State Dining Room due to inclement weather, originally intended to be held in the newly renovated Rose Garden. The event marked a rare gathering of top executives and founders from some of the world's most valuable tech companies, all vying for an edge in the emerging field of AI.

The White House has been pursuing close relationships with tech CEOs, offering them favorable policies to encourage investments. This includes easing regulations on AI, stepping up research and development, and boosting domestic energy production to fuel data centers. The event also comes as Trump seeks to secure corporate commitments to avoid tariffs on imports and shift toward domestic manufacturing.
