The NSF is a big part of the startup community in the US: sponsoring pitch competitions; partnering with universities; educating scientists on entrepreneurship, business, and commercialization. It's sad to see this administration attacking startups and entrepreneurship in the US. Startup community volunteers will have to work that much harder at a time when traditional employment is less and less palatable.
