Why not spin up the startups in those other countries then? Heck, why not spin up YC Foundries elsewhere in the world? No H1B needed.

Heck, why not spin up YC Foundries elsewhere in the world?
No H1B needed.
- phoronixrly 20d agoBecause US VCs seem to have an allergic reaction to EU regulation? Was that a rhetorical question or do you miss the regularly scheduled front page posts complaining that the EU kills innovation?
- ActionHank 20d agoGotta be honest, I very strongly doubt that most H1Bs go to people out of the EU.
- phoronixrly 20d agoAh, I see what you meant.
- blhack 20d agoYC has. There has been (if I remember correctly) batches entirely based on India.
- ActionHank 20d agoNo, you misunderstand, I am not saying run a batch there. I am saying that YC should startup an org there that purely contracts to their startups, no need to hire, no need for H1Bs.
- downrightmike 20d agoThen you are competing for talent with Fortune 500 companies that pay more than startup wages.
- em-bee 20d agoin the US they are not competing?
