President Trump will participate in the Inaugural Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Event this afternoon in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he is expected to announce billions in AI and energy investments in Pennsylvania.
The event is scheduled for 2:30 pm ET.
The President landed in Pittsburgh at approximately 2:15 pm ET, making it likely that the event will begin behind schedule.
Trump is expected to be joined by local and state officials, including Governor Josh Shapiro and Senator John Fetterman, and several CEOs.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick; Energy Secretary Chris Wright, Environmental Protection Agency administrator Lee Zeldin, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, and White House Crypto and AI Czar David Sacks will join the President.
Per Axios:
President Trump and Sen. Dave McCormick (R-Pa.) will use a first-of-its-kind innovation summit in Pennsylvania on Tuesday to announce $70 billion in AI and energy investments for the state, including thousands of new jobs.
The inaugural Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit, at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, aims to ignite “Pennsylvania’s incredible potential to power the AI revolution,” McCormick says.
McCormick said in a statement to Axios: “President Trump has put together a bold strategy to strengthen and maintain America’s AI and energy dominance.”
Among the CEOs expected to attend: ExxonMobil’s Darren Woods, Chevron’s Mike Wirth, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Palantir’s Alex Karp, Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, Amazon Web Services’ Matt Garman, Bechtel’s Brendan Bechtel, Bridgewater’s Nir Bar Dea, GIC’s Lim Chow Kiat (Singapore), Brookfield’s Bruce Flatt, CPP Investments’ John Graham and EQT’s Toby Rice.
