President Donald Trump is expected to attend a White House meeting next week with chief executives from the crypto, prediction market, and AI industries, according to sources familiar with the planning. The gathering would put the leaders of three fast-moving tech sectors face-to-face with the president.
Who's expected
The meeting is scheduled for next week, though the White House hasn't publicly confirmed it. The exact list of attendees wasn't disclosed, but the session is said to include top executives from all three industries — crypto, prediction markets, and AI.
Why now
These sectors have drawn increasing attention in Washington. Crypto companies have been pushing for clearer regulatory guidelines, prediction markets have faced legal scrutiny over their operations, and AI firms are confronting a wave of proposed rules at both the state and federal level. A direct meeting with the president gives these executives a chance to make their case without intermediaries.
The stakes
It's unclear whether the meeting will produce any concrete policy commitments or serve mainly as a listening session. The administration hasn't announced any follow-up steps. But the fact that Trump is expected to sit down with these CEOs signals that the White House wants to engage with the sectors directly.
The meeting is expected to take place sometime next week, with more details likely to emerge closer to the date.
