The Start Up Visa: Key to Job Growth & Economic Prosperity in America

Written by Tahmina Watson

Narrated by Tahmina Watson

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, which the U.S. Congress has repeatedly failed to approve, 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 discussion of the recently restored International Entrepreneur Program, the book will be informative and educational for entrepreneurs, investors and policy makers alike.“I have followed Tahmina's work over the past decade as she was one of the few lawyers advocating with me for a Startup Visa. Though little has changed since our advocacy started more than a decade ago, her book is more relevant today and essential reading for anyone who cares about the economy, job creation, and entrepreneurship in America.”–Brad Feld, Managing Partner, Foundry Group“Tahmina Watson has produced an excellent book on the startup visa that should be read by policymakers, entrepreneurs and others attempting to navigate and improve America’s often challenging legal immigration system.” –Stuart Anderson, Executive Director, National Foundation for American Policy
