DALLAS, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 15, 2024 / As the demand for tech talent and highly skilled professionals surges in the US and UK, companies are stepping up to bridge the gap. One fintech company that's doing this in a phenomenal way is Vesti, backed by Techstars and a network of strategic investors and angel supporters, is playing a pivotal role in addressing these shortages by facilitating the migration of students and professionals to these tech-driven economies.

With a mission to help 1 billion immigrants by 2034, Vesti is dedicated to using AI and a suite of B2B connections that are often underrated to create a comprehensive pathway for students and skilled professionals aiming to move to the US with special visas like the O-1, EB-1, and H1B. The company understands the complexities and challenges involved in international migration and has developed a robust platform to simplify this process. Their services range from providing AI-tailored detailed guidance on visa applications to offering support in securing housing and financial services upon arrival, utilizing a mix of venture capital funding of approximately $1.5 million and an additional $270,000 in credits from Google for Startups and Stripe.

One of the key features of Vesti is its commitment to making the migration process as seamless as possible. They offer a range of resources, including up-to-date information on visa requirements, financial planning tools, and a network of support services to ensure that migrants can integrate smoothly into their new environments.

According to the CEO of Vesti, Olusola Amusan, "Our mission is to make migration easy and accessible for everyone. We believe that by providing the right tools and support, we can help individuals achieve their dreams and contribute to the global economy." He further emphasized, "The tech talent gap in the US and UK presents a unique opportunity for skilled professionals around the world. At Vesti, we are committed to helping them navigate this journey successfully."
