Startup founders upbeat on US visa tweak despite big hurdles in process

The US government's decision to revise the International Entrepreneur Rule (IER) has received a mixed response. While some see it as an opportunity for Indian startup founders to establish their ventures in the US, others believe it may not yield significant results. The IER allows foreign entrepreneurs to stay in the country for up to five years if their ventures benefit the public. However, the program has not seen much uptake due to various challenges, including the lack of long-term security and the temporary nature of the program. Some Indian startup founders are hopeful that the Indian government will make local laws easier to encourage entrepreneurs to establish their ventures in India.
