White House Convenes Tech Leaders for Summit

President Trump briefly joined the meeting, which marked an easing of tensions between Washington and Silicon Valley. Tech-industry executives have been critical of Mr. Trump's policies on immigration and climate change since his election. Other notable attendees included U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. The summit's theme was "Industries of the Future." It was intended to be a listening session for tech leaders to share policy ideas, a senior administration official said.
