"If Miami launches a crusade to resurrect the [International Entrepreneur Rule] and succeeds, it could become the world’s premier magnet for Latin American & European entrepreneurs. It could happen." —@oppenheimera

True for Miami & other cities, too…

[Ellen Huet @ellenhuet]

founders! 📢📢

did you start a company during the pandemic?

i'm looking to hear surprising/unusual stories about how covid changed or upended that process: working, raising money, hiring, etc

if you have a weird or colorful story (or know someone who does), dm me! let's talk

[Jeremy Neufeld @JeremyLNeufeld]

Since the US doesn't have a startup visa, immigrant entrepreneurs like Moderna's Noubar Afeyan have to try to navigate visa programs not well suited to founding and growing companies—or take their ideas elsewhere

Great stuff from @arashf about his story as an immigrant cofounder building Dropbox with roots in Kansas City @KauffmanFDN : https://t.co/UhnMLL8CxW

[Babson Entrepreneurs @BabsonEship]

It's not too late to join - we still have 25 pitches to go! Watch our entrepreneurs pitch an incredible range of ideas and give them live feedback on the spot.

We created @Hack_Diversity, @XFactorVentures, & @GlobalEIR. In our recent website redesign, we highlighted our under-represented founders, proud of our progress in this important area. And yet, we still suck at it if we're honest w/ourselves. We can & should do more. #HireorWire

[Venture Development Center @umassvdc]

Important update from our MA Global EIR immigration law firm on who the immigration executive order actually does and does not restrict. Many entrepreneurs will breathe a sigh of relief, for now. @GlobalEIR @UnshackledVC @bernatolle @LifeSciVC
