Meta has appointed three new members to its board of directors, including Dana White, the president and CEO of Ultimate Fighting Championship and a familiar figure in the orbit of incoming President Donald Trump.

UFC CEO Dana White and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg are officially in business together. On Monday, White was named to Meta's Board of Directors. White was named to the Meta board of directors alongside Exor CEO John Elkann and tech investor Charlie Songhurst.

Tapping White to join the board could be seen as Zuckerberg's latest maneuver to improve ties with Trump, who was once banned from Facebook.
