The Startup Visa

Job creation. Job Growth. Economic recovery. These urgent issues in America are at the top of everyone's minds as we try to come out of a global recession caused by an unprecedented global pandemic. Immigration law is one such tool for recovery if only Congress would create a Startup Visa. This book provides a compelling argument for how and why U.S. immigration policy is working against our own best interest. It explores why a bipartisan Startup Visa for foreign entrepreneurs is now more crucial than ever. And it reaches back through the generations to acknowledge immigrants' contributions to America. If we want a future of economic prosperity, the Startup Visa is essential for keeping America in this global race as the rest of the world is catching up, embracing the entrepreneurs we are turning away. With lively analysis of how existing visa options such as H-1B, L-1A, E-2 visas are not always good fits for the modern-day investor-backed founder and with a discussion of the recently restored International Entrepreneur Program, the book will be informative and educational for entrepreneurs, investors and policymakers alike.
