On Thursday, at the Golden Age of American Innovation Summit, President Trump awarded the National Medal of Science to Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, Sergey Brin, and Lisa Su from AMD. Michael Dell and Satya Nadella also received the National Medal of Technology and Innovation.
These awardees collectively donated nearly $6 billion to initiatives related to Trump and his administration. Notably, AMD contributed to a pro-Trump Super PAC, and the Dells pledged over $6 billion to a savings program for children. Trump praised the honorees for pioneering America’s future and emphasized the country’s competitive edge.
Interestingly, Nadella received his medal shortly after the administration suspended Microsoft from the H-1B program, which allows the hiring of skilled foreign workers.
