Founder mobility
Founders and investors
A credible immigration strategy begins with a credible business. The route, evidence and commercial model must tell the same story.

Strategy before process.
Innovator Founder, UK market entry and immigration planning aligned with the venture, its ownership and the founder's longer term objectives.
The first task is to identify the legal and evidential issues that will determine the outcome. Advice is then organised around the objective, the available time and the wider commercial or personal context.
Where a matter carries material risk, the difficult points are tested at the beginning. This allows the route, evidence and execution plan to be settled before unnecessary cost or commitment is incurred.

Read or enquire ↗Questions considered
What clients need to know before deciding.
01Is Innovator Founder the only route for a business founder?+
No. The correct route depends upon the founder, the business, its ownership and the proposed UK role. Innovator Founder, sponsored work and other routes should be compared before the structure is fixed.
02How early should endorsement strategy begin?+
Before the final business plan and evidence pack are produced. Innovation, viability, scalability, founder market fit and the commercial model must be coherent from the outset.
03Can you review an existing business plan?+
Yes. The review should test the plan against the endorsement criteria and the underlying evidence, rather than simply editing the language of the document.
