USCIS has extended an invitation to join them as they launch their Entrepreneurs in Residence (EIR) initiative with an Information Summit focused on ensuring that the immigration pathways for foreign entrepreneurs are clear, consistent, and better reflect today’s business realities. The engagement will be held February 22, 2012 at 8:30AM – 5:30PM (Pacific Standard Time), in Silicon Valley, CA.

Through panel discussions and breakout sessions, the Summit will give participants the opportunity to share their strategic thinking and business expertise with the agency. The feedback from the Summit will inform the work of the Entrepreneurs in Residence tactical team, which will bring business experts in-house to work alongside USCIS staff to maximize current immigration laws’ potential to attract foreign entrepreneurial talent and to work alongside USCIS staff for a period of approximately 90 days.
