Mark Zuckerberg, boss of Meta and MMA fan, strikes hard: he formalizes the arrival of Dana White, president of the UFC, to the board of directors of the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. An explosive alliance between tech and combat sport.
It was on his social networks that Zuckerberg, an avid MMA practitioner and fervent supporter of the UFC, shared the news. Dana White, who made the UFC one of the most popular sports leagues in the world, officially joins Meta, marking an unprecedented turning point for the technology giant. “I was never interested in a board of directors until I was offered the Meta board. I firmly believe that social media and AI are the future,” White said in a statement.
This appointment is not limited to sport: close to Donald Trump, who will take office on January 20, Dana White also embodies a strategic bridge between Zuckerberg and the political world. “Dana has built an exemplary company that I have always admired for her entrepreneurial spirit and ability to create a brand loved around the world,” Zuckerberg concluded, highlighting the potential impact of this new collaboration.
