That's what the startup visa in it current advocacy states: if an entrepreneur has raised 250k then so be it.

So yes, valid idea. But again, not what I' saying: if I want to start a business, it should not be a requirement that I have to raise money or go into an incubator. Those are factors that should accelerate an application, not determine it.

Being foreign tech enterpreneur myself, I think your idea is the most legit. But that is why it seems harder for it to be brought into life, unfortunately.
