Xi Jinping – Chinese President

Top executives from major companies like Microsoft, Citigroup, Exxon Mobil, and Tesla are gathering in San Francisco for a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and other Asian leaders.

Despite ongoing challenges in U.S.-China relations, these CEOs are eager to discuss business opportunities and navigate the complex trade environment.

The summit comes at a time when both countries are grappling with trade restrictions and regulatory issues, particularly in industries such as technology, logistics, oil and gas, and finance.

The CEOs, including notable figures like Elon Musk and Jane Fraser, see this as an opportunity to engage with Chinese leaders and address concerns and ambitions in a less formal setting.
