My Journey
In March 2020, I pitched my business to Scott and Joel and received my letter of endorsement and visa approval just days before global lockdown. The Envestors team was incredibly supportive with referrals for accountants, lawyers and all the toolkit I needed to set up my business. Although there were a couple of bumps along the road with my ILR, the Envestors team supported and guided me to a successful result. I have since then recommended other female founders for the programme and look forward to supporting and advocating for this visa process in the future!
Advice to Founders
Get clear on who your audience is and what your north star is. From there work backwards to see what steps you need to take to achieve your goals.
