And now the renewable energy leader will be part of the New York discussion.
Many in this group of tech leaders have clashed with Trump throughout the election and are wary of his policies and potential decisions surrounding tech, from cybersecurity to net neutrality.
Back in October 2015, Musk said he hoped Trump wouldn't get the GOP nomination. It's too late for that now, but earlier this year Musk saidin a statement that he believes in "supporting reasonable candidates that show wisdom in their actions, understanding that no one is perfect, and empathy for all." That statement came after a private event he attended with Republican legislators, donors and other influential people.
