PHOTOS: ‘Summer camp for billionaires’ underway in Sun Valley, Idaho
CEOs on the ground include Disney's Iger, Apple's Cook, Salesforce's Benioff
FOX Business senior correspondent Charlie Gasparino joins 'The Claman Countdown' to discuss Disney CEO Bob Iger seeking a contract extension beyond his current end date of 2024.
The business world's heaviest hitters are gathering in Sun Valley, Idaho, for the annual event hosted by investment firm Allen & Company, dubbed "summer camp for billionaires," where deals are made and relationships are cultivated. It also comes as actors and writers voted to strike for the first time since 1960.
This year's attendees did not disappoint.
Billionaire Warren Buffett, Amazon co-founder Jeff Bezos, Disney CEO Bob Iger and Activision CEO Bobby Kotick, fresh off his score against the FTC, which is trying to block his $69 billion deal with Microsoft, are among a few of the many attendees.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft was spotted palling around with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
