U.S. Vice President JD Vance welcomed Dr. Sultan Al Jaber, the UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and Chief Executive of ADNOC, to the White House on Monday as the two countries sought to add heft to their growing economic ties.

Al Jaber and UAE Ambassador to the U.S. Yousef Al Otaiba were part of a top-ranking Emirati delegation led by National Security Adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed that fanned out in the presidential mansion for a series of meetings with senior Trump administration officials.

The meeting with Vance was arranged “to discuss deepening UAE-U.S. collaboration on supporting energy investment and abundance, technological leadership, and unleashing unprecedented economic growth,” the UAE Embassy said in a post on X.

On the agenda this week for Sheikh Tahnoon, Chairman of Abu Dhabi-owned International Holding Co. and sovereign wealth funds ADIA and ADQ, are meetings with Tesla’s Elon Musk, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, and Oracle’s Larry Ellison, Semafor reports.

Also scheduled to meet Sheikh Tahnoon are Microsoft’s Satya Nadella, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, and Palantir’s Alex Karp, the news outlet said.
