On average, Brad Feld comes across at least one foreign entrepreneur every week who is struggling to stay in the U.S. and build a company here. Over the past year alone, he's uncovered several hundred of these passionate people, representing thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of new jobs (and who knows how much innovative).
Every day that passes, we are missing a huge opportunity in this country by making it too hard for non-US citizens to stay and build their high growth entrepreneurial companies.
So what should be done to solve this problem?
Join us as Brad steps us through the issues and leads a discussion on the uncertainties in the visa process that foreign entrepreneurs face when considering relocating their startups to the US, as well as steps that are being taken to make it easier to allow foreign jobs to come to this country and help restore our job market.
