Hi Peter, thanks for doing this again.

I'm a startup founder from India who'd love to learn more about how to gain access to US capital markets and startup ecosystem. (e.g. Annual VC deal volume in US is typically 25x that of India).

I'd love to know what you think are some practical ways of going about this, any common gotchas etc.:

1. Opening a delaware c corp via stripe atlas, any common mistakes you've seen?

2. For a small bootstrapped business (<$100K ARR), are there any realistic ways for the founder to immigrate to the US? (mainly to access a better ecosystem, community)

3. For setting up a remote team: Say that I keep the tech team in my home country, what's the best way to, for example, set up a sales team in the US? (common use case for B2B SaaS)

if you're looking for a less expensive option - check out Blook.io - we help global founders register their businesses in the US and provide a free EIN/bank account :)

You have an asterisk next to the bank account and yet you provide no details on the website. I'd say most people are doing this mainly for the bank account (and payment processing). So you might want to expand on that in the website to avoid me sending you an email to ask about it.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Can you provide a granular breakdown of why I would pick this vs Stripe atlas?
