Support to Startups by Microsoft

Question

Hi Everyone,

 

Just wanted to know what kind of support Microsoft provides to startup companies in term of Software Licensing and compliance.

As Microsoft S/Ws are coming with the much higher price for S/W or Web Development, is there any support for those startups who are not able to afford Visual Studio, SQL Server, and OS.

 

Any suggestion and ideas in this regards are welcome. 

 

Thanks
