It's great to see a community forming and the general enthusiasm.
But are there any vendors actively participating in or supporting Embedded Rust?
For example is any vendor porting drivers to native Rust?

That's kind of an interesting question.
While obviously vendor participation can lead to some positive outcomes; my impression is some part of the motivation for Rust targeting the embedded space (and not waiting on vendors) is to avoid reliance on hardware vendors.
Due largely to the poor reputation hardware vendors have in regard to anything in the software tool/firmware space within the C ecosystem.
There are also a large number of things going on in industry that aren’t yet truly public. Some of these are the “I know something I can’t say” variety and some are the variety of “wow another car manufacturer has posted an embedded Rust job?”
Exiting times ahead.
