NEW YORK/WASHINGTON: President-elect Donald Trump and some of Silicon Valley's most powerful executives met at his Manhattan tower on Dec 14, a summit convened to smooth over frictions after both sides made no secret of their disdain for each other during the election campaign.
The meeting focused chiefly on economic issues, including job creation, lowering taxes and trade dynamics with China, while largely skirting the many disagreements the tech industry has with Trump on matters ranging from immigration to digital privacy, according to a Trump transition team statement.
