Ambani is Asia's richest person, and Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) has made multiple investments in Reliance businesses. The visit also maintains significant alliances with major American tech companies, including Google and Meta.

After this, Ambani is likely to attend a formal state dinner hosted at Lusail Palace with Trump and other major leaders in Doha. However, he is unlikely to hold any formal business or investment talks during the event, reported TOI. Sources to the newspaper said that a London-based Indian-origin business figure will also be present at the dinner event. 

This is the second meeting for Ambani after Trump, after resuming his office in January this year. He and his wife Nita Ambani attended Trump's second inauguration in January. They were also part of the select 100 who attended an intimate candlelit dinner with Trump a day prior to the inauguration.
