White House May Allow More Foreign Entrepreneurs In The U.S.
ResumeA new federal proposal may make it easier for foreigners to start businesses in the U.S.
The plan, announced Friday, would require foreigners to own at least 15 percent of a new company, among other things. The government is taking public comments for the next 45 days.
The proposal has gained attention throughout the technology industry, which has many foreign-born workers, including several high-profile founders and executives.
