Donald Trump is going to be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on January 20th. His inauguration has attracted an assembly of prominent CEOs, business leaders, and global figures to be a part of the ceremony.

Several top CEOs from the tech and entrepreneurial sectors are in attendance. Among the most notable is Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX. Musk has been extremely supportive of the Trump administration's pro-business stance. He has recently been appointed to lead the newly established Department of Government Efficiency. Also in attendance are Tim Cook, CEO of Apple; Mark Zuckerberg, Founder and CEO of Meta (formerly Facebook); and Jeff Bezos, Founder of Amazon. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Uber Technologies Inc.
