Tech entrepreneurs like Mark and Dreeson are intending to make significant donations to Trump PACs as they believe the former president is better for startups due to favorable policies like tariffs and lower taxes. Some investors like David Slacks have shown support at the RNC convention, but not without criticism. J.D. Vance's connections to Peter Thiel and Trump's endorsement have raised questions about his tech credentials.

The involvement of influential figures like Reid Hoffman and Sheryl Sandberg adds to the diversity of perspectives in the tech and investing landscape.
