I am sure there are a few UK YC startups. Below is what I can recall off the top of my head. The blogs in particular may hold useful info for you regarding getting visas and working in the U.S. plus the journey in startup as a whole - I particularly like http://www.kulveer.co.uk http://www.kulveer.co.uk and http://blog.harjtaggar.com http://blog.harjtaggar.com who are the http://www.auctomatic.com http://www.auctomatic.com guys as they give a good level of detail throughout their journey. However, http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/05/02/coming-to-america-getting-visas-to-do-business-in-silicon-valley/#more-17036 http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/05/02/coming-to-america-getti... (or http://is.gd/1Vrf http://is.gd/1Vrf in short) by Peter from ClickPass could be what you were referring to and probably holds most of the answers you want in the most succinct form. Anyway, I'm sure if you contact them they may be answer specific visa questions from their experience. Hope this helps. --- http://www.auctomatic.com http://auctomatic.com/about http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=kul http://www.kulveer.co.uk http://twitter.com/kul http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=harj http://blog.harjtaggar.com http://twitter.com/harjeet http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=pc http://www.collison.ie/ http://twitter.com/patrickc [John Collison] http://twitter.com/collision http://snaptalent.com http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=sharpshoot http://sharpshoot.blogspot.com/ http://twitter.com/sharpshoot http://www.songkick.com/ http://www.songkick.com/team http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=ian http://twitter.com/soundboy http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=petesmithy http://twitter.com/petesmithy http://www.clickpass.com/ http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=immad http://www.immadsnewworld.com/ http://twitter.com/immad http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=petenixey http://www.webkitchen.co.uk/ http://twitter.com/petenixey http://webmynd.com/ http://webmynd.wordpress.com http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=amirnathoo http://twitter.com/amirnathoo http://www.scoopler.com http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=ajmalasver http://blog.projectbluespark.com/ http://twitter.com/_aj http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=dilanj http://meonearth.blogspot.com/ http://twitter.com/_dilan
