The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) this week announced a series of administrative reforms to help attract new businesses and new investment to the U.S. and ensure that the U.S. has the most skilled workforce in the world. These reforms are to take place over a period of time.

Leaders in the private sector launched the Startup America Partnership, an independent alliance of entrepreneurs, corporations, universities, foundations, and other leaders, joining together to fuel innovative, high-growth U.S. start-ups. Within just one year, the Partnership has mobilized to make over $1 billion in business services available to a national network that will serve as many as 100,000 start-ups over the next three years.
