Principal at Acronym Venture Capital

Last night FirstGen hosted a workshop on Visa Options for Immigrant Founders. Huge thanks to Jonathan Grode, US Practice Director for Green and Spiegel, for a thoughtful, tactical and empowering session. Key takeaways for immigrant founders: ✅ Be as pragmatic about your immigration as you are about your business. ✅ Find ways to carve your own path and not be reliant on others for your status. ✅ Everyone is extraordinary and any one can work to get an extraordinary talent visa. Let's keep more amazing founders building the future in the US! Thank you to Chris Errico, Dentons and Acronym Venture Capital for supporting this event.
