President Biden and first lady Jill Biden welcomed Japan’s prime minister, Fumio Kishida, to the White House on Wednesday for a combined official visit and state dinner to celebrate the alliance between the two countries.

“This visit also reflects the upward trajectory of the U.S.-Japan Alliance as it evolves into a global partnership that promotes a shared vision of progress and prosperity for the future. The two leaders’ ambitious efforts span the depth and breadth of the Alliance to include cooperation on defense and security; space; advanced technology and economic cooperation; diplomacy and development; and people-to-people ties,” the administration said in its briefing fact sheet.

Private investment from Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Toyota, to name a few, were highlighted, as well as educational exchange programs supported by Apple and the Blackrock Foundation.

The dinner also drew a who’s who crowd of business titans, billionaires and even the chairman of the Federal Reserve, as shown in FOX Business’ slide show.
