Washington | Billionaire packaging king Anthony Pratt and mining magnate Gina Rinehart will attend next week’s inauguration for President-elect Donald Trump’s second mandate, where they will be rubbing shoulders with some of the world’s biggest business names.
Mr Pratt, a green-card-holder who has invested heavily in the US, has strengthened his relationship with Mr Trump in recent years. The friendship started during the first mandate, when Mr Trump was invited to Pratt Industries’ Wapakoneta, Ohio recycling and paper plant during then-prime minister Scott Morrison’s state visit to the US.
