About this Event
Explore five UK pathways. Understand your options. Plan your next move.
Are you a professional or founder living in the United States and considering opportunities in the UK?
Whether you are exploring new career opportunities, considering your next move as a founder, or thinking about building a second base for your future, understanding the available UK pathways can help you make more informed decisions.
Join eMigr8 in Washington, DC, for a practical, in-person masterclass designed to help African professionals and founders explore five UK pathways, understand what each involves, and identify the next steps worth considering for their circumstances.
Led by Bade Adesemowo, CTO and Co-founder of eMigr8, this session will combine practical route information, real-world case discussions, and opportunities to ask questions.
What You Will Learn
- Global Talent Visa UK Discover why the Global Talent route matters, what to put in your professional profile and evidence, and how to start evaluating your readiness.
- UK Innovator Founder Visa Path for entrepreneurs with qualifying innovative business ideas. Check out Innovation – Why is it important, viability, scalability, endorsement.
- UK Skilled Worker Visa Find out how the sponsored employment route works, including the role of eligible employers and jobs and the requirements to consider before applying for this route.
- UK Self Sponsorship Strategy These often refer to business and sponsorship arrangements as self-sponsorship. Discover the structures, requirements and limitations involved.
- eMigr8 UK Settlement Roadmap Learn how to take on your talent-mobility journey, from exploring your options and evaluating your profile to planning your next steps and longer-term settlement. A roadmap isn’t a separate visa, but a planning framework. Your eligibility and settlement timescales will depend on the route you apply through, immigration rules and personal circumstances.
What Makes This Masterclass Practical?
