“Young businesses — rather than small businesses — represent the most reliable, consistent source of job creation, and foreign-born entrepreneurs have long been at the helm of many of those firms.  But increasingly strict immigration laws are making it more difficult for those immigrants to start their enterprises in the U.S., prompting a ‘reverse brain drain,’ according to the researchers. Of particular concern is the growing number of foreign-born students who earn advanced degrees at U.S. universities but after graduating are forced to return home, where some create firms that compete against American companies.”
