“I’m very thankful to the Sirius programme for allowing me to come to the UK… and to build a company to rock the world with!”
– Jennifer Arcuri, Innotech Summit.
Jennifer, who has brought Boris to Level39 as part of the Innotech Summit 2013, was keen to share the love when it came to starting up in the UK, “As an American entrepreneur I have loved coming to London to build my business, but have also thoroughly enjoyed the experiences I’ve had in other UK tech cities: Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Newcastle.”
A California native, Jennifer got a helping hand from the Sirius programme “I’m very thankful to the Sirius programme for allowing me to come to the UK, obtain a Tier 1 Graduate Entrepreneur visa, and to continue to build a company to rock the world with!”
