A delegation of prominent U.S. executives, including leaders from Meta, Tesla, BlackRock, Illumina, Mastercard and Visa, will accompany Donald Trump during his May 14 to May 15 summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing, Reuters reported Tuesday.
Unlike Trump's 2017 visit centered on large trade agreements, sources familiar with the matter said this year's delegation is focused on resolving regulatory and supply-chain issues in China, according to the report.
Companies are seeking approvals, investment access and eased restrictions as tensions persist between the world's two largest economies, with the executives hoping the meeting will advance long-running business negotiations and improve commercial ties, Reuters wrote.
