U.S. Business Titans Aim to Mend Ties at U.S.-China Summit

A U.S. business delegation, including industry giants like Tesla and BlackRock, accompanies President Trump to China for a summit with President Xi Jinping. The goal is to resolve business issues and gain market access. Participation hinges on presenting 'tangible asks' that promise concrete outcomes.

From Meta to Tesla and BlackRock, the U.S. business delegation for President Donald Trump's summit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping this week consists mainly of companies seeking to resolve business issues with the world's second-largest economy.

More than a dozen CEOs and top executives will accompany Trump as companies aim to deliver demands on critical input supply, moving beyond surface-level commercial deals.

The delegates hope to mend ties and secure regulatory approvals in China's challenging business landscape, presenting 'tangible asks' to foster investment opportunities.
