Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai confirmed Monday he will attend as well. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and OpenAI President Greg Brockman are also expected, according to reports from MS Now and Reuters. Trump and Vice President JD Vance are hosting an all-day event that includes the lunch, though CNBC's sourcing on the guest list relies on people who spoke anonymously because the details aren't public yet.
The gathering puts some of the most powerful names in tech, running the companies behind ChatGPT, Gemini, Meta's AI products and Nvidia's chips, in the same room as the president and the speaker of the House. That kind of access matters for an industry facing questions in Washington over AI regulation, chip exports and competition policy.
None of the executives or the White House has laid out an agenda publicly. Five of the biggest names in Silicon Valley showing up for the same lunch says a lot about how much they think is riding on this administration's next moves.
