I am Canadian. Can I do this?
- dylangs1030 14y agoYes. If you can relocate to the Bay area for 3 months, get a visa for the time you'll be there, and also move your startup. It's easier if you 1. try to get your visa as soon as possible (now), 2. haven't incorporated yet, 3. can move most, if not all cofounders to California. EDIT: I'd like to add I'm not formally associated with Y-Combinator. Just trying to help.
- srlake 14y agoYou don't need a visa as a Canadian to visit the US for 3 months for business purposes, such as meeting with "prominent investors and advisors" ;)
- dylangs1030 14y agoThanks for that info, I didn't know :)
- pg 14y agoOf course, we've funded lots of Canadian startups. There are some in every batch.
- srlake 14y agoI'm a Canadian and in the current batch. There are lots of alum from Waterloo and some from Toronto.
