Apple CEO Tim Cook expressed concern over the order, saying his company's success is because of the immigrants.
"I've heard from many of you who are deeply concerned about the executive order issued yesterday restricting immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries. I share your concerns. It is not a policy we support," he wrote to his employees.
"There are employees at Apple who are directly affected by yesterday's immigration order. Our HR, Legal and Security teams are in contact with them, and Apple will do everything we can to support them," he said.
The Internet Association president and CEO Michael Beckerman said the internet industry is deeply concerned with the implications of Trump s executive order.
"While this order impacts many companies outside of the tech industry, internet companies in particular thrive in the US because the best and the brightest are able to create innovative products and services right here in America," he said.
"While we support President Trump s efforts to grow our economy and allow people of great talent to come into the US, the executive order signed yesterday has troubling consequences," Beckerman said.
Internet Association member companies along with companies in many other industries include legal immigrant employees who are covered by these recent executive orders and will not be able to return back to their jobs and families in the US, he said.
"Their work benefits our economy and creates jobs here in the United States. We maintain our support for immigration reform and will work with Congress and the Trump Administration on this important issue for families and our economy, Beckerman said.

Reed Hastings of Netflix in a Facebook post said Trump's actions are hurting Netflix employees around the world.
"Worse, these actions will make America less safe (through hatred and loss of allies) rather than more safe. A very sad week, and more to come with the lives of over 600,000 Dreamers here in a America under imminent threat. It is time to link arms together to protect American values of freedom and opportunity," Hastings said.
