Investor visas are tied to targeted business investment, which make them excellent avenues for intrepid entrepreneurs looking to relocate to Canada, the UK, or the US. Start, grow, or run a business in a leading economic center while you enjoy a secure, abundant lifestyle.
Many investor visa programs require you to do business in particular regions, create a number of positions, and/or make a direct investment. If you qualify, not only can you gain residence in the country, but there’s often a path to full citizenship after a given period of time.
Safe, prosperous, diversified, and educated, Canada is an excellent place to develop and mature your innovative business.
