Meta has appointed UFC President Dana White, Exor CEO John Elkann, and tech investor Charlie Songhurst to its board of directors. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced these additions via a Facebook post, praising White for his entrepreneurial acumen in transforming the UFC into a prominent sports brand. This strategic move comes as Zuckerberg seeks to strengthen his ties with incoming President Donald Trump, a close ally of White who has actively supported Trump at Republican events. Zuckerberg has also been linked to Trump through past donations and meetings, including a significant contribution to Trump’s inauguration fund. Elkann brings valuable expertise from leading global automotive brands like Stellantis and Ferrari, while Songhurst has been providing advice to Meta on artificial intelligence strategies. Zuckerberg lauded Elkann for his extensive experience in managing large-scale businesses and his global perspective, which could enhance Meta’s leadership. The board expansion reflects Meta’s ongoing efforts to innovate and navigate the complex landscape of technology and politics.
