Tech giants Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg are set to attend U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration on Monday, according to sources familiar with the event planning. The high-profile CEOs of Tesla, Amazon, and Meta will be prominently featured, sitting alongside Cabinet nominees and other elected officials at the ceremony, reports Reuters.

NBC News first reported their attendance, though representatives for Musk, Bezos, and Zuckerberg have not yet commented on their involvement.

Notably, Amazon and Meta have contributed $1 million each to support Trump’s inauguration, underscoring their participation. Elon Musk, who leads Tesla, SpaceX, and X, reportedly invested over $250 million to support Trump’s presidential campaign.

Their presence signals a potential alignment between the incoming administration and major players in the tech industry. It remains to be seen how this relationship will influence the regulatory landscape and other tech-related policies under Trump's leadership.

The inauguration, a focal point for domestic and international attention, is expected to draw significant interest as these influential business leaders join government officials in welcoming the new administration.
