I feel like these conversations often get confusing because people mean different things by the term “entrepreneur”, so I wonder if you could define what you mean by “entrepreneur” and what you think they would do in EA?
Even with very commercializable EA projects like cellular agriculture, my experience is that the best founders are closer to scientists than traditional CEOs, and once you get to things like disentanglement research the best founders have almost no skills in common with e.g. tech company founders, despite them both technically being “entrepreneurs” in some sense.
