Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella plan to visit the White House this month, Bloomberg reports, for the first meeting of a Jared Kushner-led council that aims to “transform and modernize” government digital services. Alphabet Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt will also attend the meeting of the American Technology Council on June 19th, according to Bloomberg, along with executives from IBM and Oracle.
President Donald Trump formed the American Technology Council by executive order on May 1st, tapping Kushner — his son-in-law and senior advisor — to lead it. Facebook has received an invitation to this month’s event, Bloomberg reports, though the company has not yet responded to it.
