YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Trump administration has pushed a sweeping policy agenda intended to hinder immigration. This has included a move in September to increase the fees on H-1B visa applications to $100,000 apiece, a staggering tenfold hike, along with other changes that have made the program less desirable to employers. Foreign-born residents are facing increasing hostility from Washington, regardless of their legal status. For many, the long-term viability of a career in Silicon Valley seems less certain than ever.

India is trying to attract skilled professionals to return home with policies like Bharat-Talent and Bharat-Return, and some foreign-born tech workers are already pivoting to the world's most populous country, where the tech industry is maturing and offering new opportunities. Saritha Rai details these developments in a Bloomberg Businessweek magazine, and speaks with Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on Bloomberg Businessweek Daily.
