Fan Bi, Blank Label, and the case for the Founders Visa

• theashworld 17y ago
  The problem is such visa issuances invariably involve working closely with IRS (to ensure the person actually runs the business, makes enough money, employs all the people he/she claims, etc). And I don't think these two parts of the government have great communication or the infrastructure to have a good communication.

    eh.. it's called an "audit", and they've had that infrastructure forever.

  This article is not a clear cut case for a founder's visa as the business model isn't at all clear it should be operated from the U.S. Quality control from Shanghai is a critical element of this business. Boston does not provide enough of an edge to addressing their global market than many other cities. Shanghai would do well for a headquarters for all aspects of the business, possibly better than Boston. The only thing I get from this article is the founder likes the vibe in Boston and wants to stay.
