This summer, U.K. prime minister Rishi Sunak raised the cost of working visa applications, which, according to some sources, would burden businesses with up to £10,000 in fees per skilled worker.

I think we can learn from how, in just two decades, pro-immigration and a dedication to nurturing the startup community has made Estonia into a tech power that now boasts more unicorns per capita than anywhere else in the world.

When it comes to hiring, the most straightforward solution is to tap into countries with surplus talent in roles essential for booming sectors like AI, engineering, and cybersecurity.

And while places like the Philippines, India, and Nigeria have a surplus of outstanding technical talent, the arduous process and high cost of obtaining working visas make hiring from these countries a founder’s nightmare.

The U.K. is witnessing a growing trend of founders starting out in the U.K. and then establishing their businesses elsewhere in Europe, where ecosystems in countries like France and Germany have matured considerably over the past few years.

How can we become leaders in AI, engineering, and sustainability if our political environment and archaic visa and immigration processes make hiring the best minds a painstaking and costly ordeal?
