VC Industry Makes an Impact on Washington at VCs-to-DC
blog, Events, Public Policy /by Devin MillerAt a time when the startup ecosystem is intersecting more and more with policies coming out of Washington, it seems like an ideal time to bring venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, and policymakers together to discuss the future of policy impacting America’s innovation industry. Last week, NVCA did just that at VCs-to-DC. Our event brought together the […]
A Proposal to Encourage More Public Companies – NVCA’s Perspective
blog, Capital Formation & Regulation, Public Policy /by Justin FieldI hope that you were able to read the press release NVCA sent out yesterday announcing the release of a proposal to encourage more U.S. public companies.

NVCA Highlights from 2017 and What’s Ahead in 2018
blog, Ecosystems, Public Policy /by Bobby FranklinWith 2017 in the rearview, we can now take a deep breath and try to make sense of what was a very turbulent year. President Trump’s first year in office turned out to be even more unconventional than his campaign for president. Protests the day after his inauguration, making news with the stroke of a […]
NVCA Gets Its Day in Court on Immigration Case
blog, Immigration, Public Policy /by Jeff FarrahNVCA has worked hard in 2017 to make the United States a friendlier place to immigrant entrepreneurs. The venture industry knows first-hand the many incredible contributions of foreign-born entrepreneurs, like how more than half of U.S. “unicorns” were started by immigrants, or that one-third of U.S. venture-backed companies that went public between 2006 and 2012 […]
We’re Suing the Government over Immigration. Here’s Why.
blog, Immigration, Public Policy /by Bobby FranklinAmerican entrepreneurship and immigration are deeply intertwined, and our community is thankful for the many contributions that immigrant entrepreneurs have brought to our country. The stats are astounding: immigrants have started more than half of America’s “unicorns;” one-third of U.S. venture-backed companies that went public between 2006 and 2012 had at least one immigrant founder; […]
Why Immigrant Entrepreneurs are Crucial for America’s Future
blog, Immigration, Public Policy /by Devin MillerOn Monday, the Department of Homeland Security was scheduled to begin receiving applications from foreign-born startup founders under the International Entrepreneur Rule. Unfortunately, the Trump Administration delayed the rule with an eye on eventually rescinding it, shutting down a commonsense policy tool that would have kept job-creators in the U.S. to build their companies here […]
A Tax Reform Agenda for the Entrepreneurial Ecosystem
blog, Public Policy, Taxes /by Justin FieldTax policy is one of the most powerful economic levers that policymakers have at their disposal. So it is concerning to see that instead of modernizing the tax code to recognize and support entrepreneurship, tax policy discussions in Washington have been more likely to focus on increasing taxes on the entrepreneurial ecosystem. For example, there […]
An Unforced Error for Job Creation
blog, Immigration, Public Policy /by Jeff FarrahStop me if you’ve heard this one before: an entrepreneur comes to the United States from her home country with dreams of growing an idea into a blockbuster company. The entrepreneur starts the company here because of our culture of innovation and risk-taking, coupled with robust financing options and the world’s best universities. Working shoulder-to-shoulder […]
