Microsoft's Generous Donation

In a significant move, Microsoft Corp. has announced a $1 million donation to President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural fund. This decision aligns Microsoft with other tech giants in supporting the upcoming presidential inauguration.

Comparison with Previous Donations

This generous contribution doubles the company's previous donations of $500,000 to both Trump's and President Joe Biden's inaugural funds. Major donors, including those contributing $1 million or more, are traditionally granted access to exclusive inauguration events, including dinners with the president and first lady.

Tech Industry's Unified Support

Microsoft's donation mirrors the $1 million contributions made by other leading tech companies, such as Alphabet Inc.'s Google LLC, Meta Platforms Inc., Apple Inc., Amazon Inc., OpenAI, and Toyota Motor North America, showcasing the tech industry's collective support for the presidential inauguration.
