Eight years ago, it was mostly family and elected officials behind Trump as he took the oath of office. This time fellow billionaires will surround him.

Nvidia's chief executive Jensen Huang said on Friday he will not be attending U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, but will instead be "on the road" celebrating the Lunar New Year with employees and their families.

Jensen Huang has other plans that day, but Nvidia has already made efforts to curry favor with the president-elect.
