Cela dépasse tout simplement l’entendement. Après avoir levé 6 millions de dollars pour financer sa start-up, et recruté 10 personnes aux Etats-Unis, le CEO de Zemanta se voit refuser sa demande de renouvellement de visa et doit rentrer en Slovénie.
Combien d’autres emplois détruits par l’aveuglement de ce système ?
Bostjan Spetic’s problem isn’t running a U.S. business. It’s running a business while in the U.S.
Zemanta CEO Bostjan Spetic dreams of being back in New York City.
His company Zemanta Ltd. is experiencing success here, having recently raised an additional $3 million to grow its New York-based team. The problem is that visa troubles are keeping Spetic back in his home country of Slovenia.
Spetic has been in the U.S. for about a year, but his visa extension request was denied two weeks ago soon after receiving the funding. He’s now trying to figure out how to reapply.
