В этом выпуске у меня в гостях Максим Цыганков — фаундер EasyVision и бывший senior product manager в VisionLabs и Яндекс Cloud. Переехав в США по туристической визе, Максим запустил стартап в области компьютерного зрения для ресторанов, привлек клиентов и инвестиции, оформил визу O-1 и начал масштабировать бизнес с нуля — без нетворка и без плана переезда заранее.Мы обсудили, как строится продукт и трекшн в B2B-стартапе с минимальными ресурсами, что сработало и не сработало в холодных рассылках и партнёрках, почему рестораны не спешат подключать камеры даже после согласия, и какова реальная стоимость и отдача от пилотных проектов. Разобрали путь привлечения первых $50 000 инвестиций и 3-х клиентов, особенности сбора кейса на визу O-1 от своего стартапа, роль адвайзеров, влияние паспорта и туристического статуса на шансы фаундера в США, а также обсудили разницу между ростом продукта и ростом продаж.Максим Цыганков (Max Tsygankov) - Founder at EasyVision (ex Senior Product Manager at Vision Labs & Yandex Cloud)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tsygankovmaksim/Эпизоды по теме релокации для предпринимателей:Как бизнесмену и стартаперу переехать в США по визе таланта O1, EB1 - как открыть компанию и подать на себя петици.

NIW-podcast #102, met: hoogzwangere vrouw in Israël overleeft aanslag niet, medici vechten om het leven van haar babietje maar Hamas juicht, hoe Halsema de stad Amsterdam polariseert met een zorgvuldig geplande anti-Israëlactie, rake klappen in Katwijk: islamisten de stad uitgebonjourd, op universiteiten mogen Joden niet spreken maar ‘Glorie aan de martelaren' en ‘Verzet tot aan de dood' lijkt geen probleem, de schijnheiligheid van Van Huffelen (Radboud Universiteit) en heel veel meer.

NIW-podcast #101, met: de enorme branden die woeden in Israël zijn (deels?) aangestoken, weinig feest op deze Jom Ha'atsmaoet, na Christenen voor Israël nu hetze tegen Nederlands-Joodse organisaties, Joodse ambtenaren wijzen actievoerende collega's op hun verantwoordelijkheid en heel veel meer.

Indian stock markets will be closed on April 14 (Ambedkar Jayanti) and April 18 (Good Friday). Plan your trades accordingly.   US-China Trade War Reloaded The tariff tussle is back on. U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced new sector-specific tariffs on smartphones, semiconductors, and pharma, likely within a month. “We can't rely on China for essentials,” he told ABC News, signaling a push to bring manufacturing home. This comes after Trump temporarily exempted some Chinese electronics from a 145% retaliatory tariff, a move that briefly helped companies like Apple, which had lost $640 billion in market value. With fresh tariffs looming, China is urging a rollback, but the tech and pharma trade war may just be heating up again. Summer Surge: Indians Flock Abroad India's scorching summer is sending travelers packing. Outbound travel is up 15–20% year-on-year, say visa providers. Top destinations: Europe, US, Canada, and Southeast Asia. “Plan early,” urges VFS Global, as visa demand jumps 11% since 2024. Peak season might stretch into October, and agencies are leaning on AI to speed up processing. From leisure to study and work, Indians are going global—and not looking back. Cleartrip's Costly Flight Plan Despite MS Dhoni's pilot pitch, Cleartrip's financials hit turbulence. In FY24, the travel portal spent ₹988 crore to earn just ₹97 crore, racking up losses over ₹800 crore—half of it on discounts. Flipkart's 2021 acquisition hasn't paid off, as rivals like MakeMyTrip and Ixigo fly ahead. With new growth head Manjari Singhal, Cleartrip is eyeing hotels, corporate travel, and cabs. But experts say: “Discounts won't fly forever.” Will Cleartrip course-correct or stay grounded? Green Card Setback for Indians The May 2025 US Visa Bulletin brings bad news—EB-5 visas for Indians retrogressed by six months to May 1, 2019, increasing wait times. Other categories remain stuck: EB-2: Jan 2013 EB-3: Slight move to April 2013 EB-4: Still unavailable Blame it on high demand, annual caps, and per-country limits. Experts advise exploring faster tracks like EB1 or NIW—but for many, the American dream is on pause.  HDFC Bets Big on Small-Town Homes HDFC Capital is investing ₹1,500 crore in 18 residential projects with Eldeco Group across Tier-II and III cities. Targeting markets like Panipat, Ludhiana, Rishikesh, and Kasauli, the platform eyes ₹11,000 crore in revenue from 10 million sq ft of new housing. “We're bullish on towns near metros,” says CEO Vipul Roongta, citing rising infrastructure and housing demand. Backed by its $4.2 billion housing fund, HDFC is betting that India's real estate boom is heading beyond the metros.

Het zijn uitdagende tijden maar toch is het een beetje feest, Joop en Esther vieren NIW-podcast nummer 100 met een extra lange uitzending. Daarin een terugblik op de afgelopen jaren, hoe de wereld het afgelopen anderhalf jaar is veranderd, maar uiteraard ook nieuws uit zowel Nederland als Israël. De ontwikkelingen op bijvoorbeeld de universiteiten hier, en activistische ambtenaren als Tofik Dibi, en vanuit Israël het laatste nieuws rond Netanyahu. Bij NIW-abonnees ligt morgen het dubbeldikke Pesachnummer in de bus, met originele matzerecepten en ook achtergrondartikelen zoals het verhaal van Harry Elte, de architect die Amsterdam een beetje mooier maakte.

Joop en Esther met NIW-podcast nr. 99 met deze week: waar is Netanyahu mee bezig, iedereen in de voorbereiding voor Pesach, over de gebeurtenissen in Amsterdam, een terugblik en geruchten aangaande de teruggave van de UvA-buls, wat werd er tijdens de iftar op De Dam nu eigenlijk voor soera gereciteerd en heel veel meer.

Joop en Esther met NIW-podcast nr. 98, met vandaag: Vannacht loeiden weer de sirenes in Israël, Netanyahu wordt steeds impopulairder, de weke knieën van de UvA en Joodse studenten vertellen hoe ze er worden geïntimideerd, trapte u in onze Poeriemgrappen? De kerfstok van Herman Brusselmans en heel veel meer.

Joop en Esther met NIW-podcast nr. 97 met vandaag: uiteraard Donald Trump. Na de toestand met Zelensky moet je je afvragen hoe betrouwbaar hij is. Netanyahu verliest aanhang maar zet intussen allemaal vriendjes op belangrijke posten. Waar is het Comité 4 en 5 mei nu weer mee bezig? Hilversumse wethouder vliegt totaal uit de bocht, neemt ontslag, maar is het verhaal daarmee gedaan? En heel veel ander nieuws.

Joop en Esther met NIW-podcast nr. 96 met: Israël in diepe rouw nu moeder en zoontjes Bibas blijken te zijn vermoord, ijzige storm op komst, families durven nog steeds niet terug naar het Noorden, Albanese's CV en Wikipagina rammelen aan alle kanten, Israëlisch stel vertelt dat ze worden weggepest uit hun buurt, Duits-Joodse gemeenschap kijkt met angst en beven naar de verkiezingen en veel meer.

Joop is terug! Voor het eerst in drie maanden hebben we weer een NIW podcast. In deze aflevering nummer 93 vertelt Joop over zijn herstel, maar ook veel aandacht voor de actualiteit: vanuit Gaza worden nog steeds raketten afgeschoten, in Noord-Israël mogen de bewoners terugkeren naar hun huizen, maar wat treffen ze daar aan? Hoop en wanhoop rond de gegijzelden. De verbijsterende chaos bij de ‘openstelling' van het Oorlogsarchief, Joodse ambtenaren sturen brandbrief naar de leidingen van hun ministerie, Buitenlandse Zaken in het bijzonder. En kun je als Jood tegenwoordig beter in Berlijn wonen dan in Amsterdam?

The National Interest Waiver (NIW) is a type of employment-based immigration option that allows certain professionals, including nurses, to apply for a green card without needing a job offer or Labor Certification. To qualify for an NIW as a nurse, you must demonstrate that your work is in the national interest of the U.S.  We have serviced over 150 nationalities and will assist you or your company with your immigration needs. 

In this podcast, Meagan Dziura (Raleigh) and Jamey Petri (Austin) dive into the National Interest Waiver (NIW) green card, exploring what makes a petition compelling and what has brought about this surge in NIW interest by employers. They break down the key elements of a strong NIW case and discuss how the recent election results will impact the future of NIWs.  Jamey and Meagan provide insights into the NIW's requirements, its advantages over the traditional PERM process, and the reasons for its growing popularity in recent years.

When immigration law expert Jonathan Grode stops by, we don't just talk policy – we dissect the very fabric of American innovation and its lifeblood: immigration. Jonathan brings to the table a wealth of knowledge, passionately delving into how entrepreneurs thrive in the U.S.'s unique culture of risk and resilience. Our conversation spans the critical role immigrants play in the nation's economic engine and the urgent need for policies that nurture this dynamic, against the backdrop of a shifting political climate and demographic landscape.  We reveal the cracks and constraints in the U.S. immigration system – from the restrictive H-1B visa cap to the employment-based green card quotas. Taking a page from Canada's immigration playbook, we propose a vision for a more nuanced and adaptive framework – one that can keep pace with technological advances and the rapid evolution of industry needs.  Jonathan also shares profound insights into the human and philosophical side of immigration law. We explore how passion and personal branding can carve out a rewarding cross-border career, and celebrate the 'skinny NIW' experiment's trailblazing success, redefining the legal landscape. This episode is not just a discussion about policy – it's a homage to the connective power of global communities, and a clarion call for ongoing dialogue in the ever-evolving realm of immigration law.  In this episode, you'll hear about: Immigration's role in boosting American innovation and economic growth Canada's immigration policies vs. the U.S. system Population decline and the need for strategic legal pathways A look at the 'skinny NIW' experiment for highly skilled tech professionals Personal branding and passion in immigration law Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

The National Interest Waiver (NIW) is a potential avenue for security professionals to secure permanent residency, or a green card, in the United States. The NIW is designed for individuals who can demonstrate that their work is of significant national importance and that it is in the interest of the United States to waive the usual labor certification process. Now let's discuss important considerations for security professionals seeking an NIW green card.

As you know, the National Interest Waiver is a U.S. immigration option that allows certain foreign nationals to apply for a green card without the need for employer sponsorship if their work is deemed to be in the national interest of the United States. While the NIW generally applies to individuals with advanced degrees or exceptional abilities in their fields, including education, it's important to note that each case is evaluated individually.

How the big entrepreneurship-based programs (Canada SUV, EB-2 NIW, and HQA) compare to each other in terms of how much hands-on involvement is required from the applicant;Why entrepreneurship-based programs more politically palatable than their more transactional golden visa and CBI peers;What kind of research investors are actually funding with the HQA program;Why processing for HQA visas is so much quicker than for golden visas;and , perhaps most importantly, how the physical presence requirements of the program actually work, and whether they really are as flexible as people say.

En este emocionante episodio, exploraremos tres fascinantes opciones para mudarse a EEUU con un presupuesto ajustado de $15.000 o menos.

The National Interest Waiver (NIW) is a pathway for foreign nationals to obtain a green card (permanent residency) in the United States based on their exceptional abilities and the national importance of their work. While traditionally associated with professions like science and technology, nurses also qualify for the NIW under certain circumstances.

Procuring a National Interest Waiver, also known as the NIW, allows you to become a U.S. lawful permanent resident (LPR) through an EB-2 green card. The NIW allows you to contribute your work to the United States to benefit U.S. society without requiring employer sponsorship or a labor certification.

As you know, a National Interest Waiver petition permits a foreign national to self-petition and bypass the customary route of obtaining a labor certification. If you think the NIW is the right choice but need help knowing where to start, stay tuned for the frequently asked questions we come across.

There are people who confuse being entrepreneurial with being parasitic. Where an opportunity arises and there is significant demand and desperation, there are people who will, and have, taken advantage of those who wish to obtain such an opportunity.Take for example this year's H-1B lottery debacle, wherein more than 408,000 H-1B registrations were filed for the same 96,000 beneficiaries, leading USCIS to conclude that “several dozen small technology companies” colluded to submit multiple registrations to increase their odds of selection in the H-1B lottery. USCIS has been actively engaged in investigating these companies and beneficiaries.We are now seeing this with the sudden increase of O-1, NIW and EB-1A consultants offering immigration coaching and mentoring services on LinkedIn, specifically focusing on how to “build a profile” to be eligible for an O-1, NIW or EB-1A. What are their qualifications? Simply one circumstance: being the beneficiary of their own O-1, NIW or EB-1A petition, which in most instances was prepared and filed by a qualified and experienced immigration attorney. These individuals are taking advantage of the concern and desperation being experienced by individuals who were not selected in the H-1B lottery, and/or otherwise subject to the extensive delays in the availability of immigrant visa numbers because of the per-country restrictions.Why do I take issue with this? Listen to the podcast and find out!

U.S. Immigration Questions Answered LIVE (April 25, 2023) 

How does the hope of the gospel apply in the midst of a miscarriage or season of infertility? Where can we find comfort when our desire for a child isn't being fulfilled? So often this conversation is focused on the experience women have but silently suffering are the men who too face the grief and pain after pregnancy loss or infertility. Eric Schumacher, pastor and author, walked through several pregnancy losses with his wife and found himself wrestling with shame and sadness. It was his own feelings of sorrow and thinking that he didn't deserve the space to grieve that God used in his writing: Ours: Biblical Comfort for Men Grieving Miscarriage. Suffering can feel like punishment and it was in his own wrestling that Eric began to see how the gospel can meet us so deeply in our pain.

WARNING: This episode contains conversations about suicide ideation and may not be suitable for all listeners/viewers. The statistics are staggering: twenty-two veterans die by suicide a day. After years of serving in the Army, Fernando Arroyo almost became one of those twenty-two when the pain of his experience in the military made him want to end his life. Finding hope and healing in the aftermath of war and post-traumatic stress was no easy task. The transition from a life full of meaning and purpose as a Paratrooper in the Army into the civilian sector was difficult for Fernando. He went from having a tight knit community, a brotherhood, with a common mission into a life where he felt alone and without purpose. That pain began to build as he was reminded of his past and eventually, he found himself on his couch with a gun, ready to end his life when the Lord miraculously intervened. From there, he found restored hope once he began to be open and honest about his struggles. Through sharing his story and what he was walking through, a newfound purpose emerged as he found other veterans who needed understanding and help in their own journey. Now, Fernando serves veterans at Step Forward Academy, helping them through the transition from military to civilian life and has recently written a book chronicling his journey called, The Shadow of Death: From My Battles in Fallujah to the Battle for My Soul. In this special Veteran's Day episode, Davey and Fernando talk about the difficulty for veterans to transition out of the military into the civilian world, the powerful impact that can come when we share our story, and the importance of community in our lives and our healing. Whether you are a veteran or not, this conversation will help you walk with others through the most painful parts of their stories and encourage you in sharing your own.

If you've been around here at Nothing is Wasted, you probably know the story of how we came to be as a ministry. It was after his own pain to purpose journey in which Davey Blackburn lost his wife, Amanda, and their unborn child in a tragic home invasion that God birthed this idea of a ministry that walked others through whatever pain they faced. In this special two-part conversation, Davey sits down with Aubrey to discuss what the past few months have been like as the legal side of their journey came to a close with the trial and sentencing of the perpetrator of Amanda's murder. For many, it may come as a surprise that this part of their story is just now happening, seven years after that fateful day that forever changed Davey's life. And yet, for the Blackburn's and Amanda's family, the significance of the number seven, a number that means completion in Scripture, is more than a mere coincidence. In spite of all the suffering they've endured, the timing is just another reminder that God has been with them every step of the way. And as this chapter in their journey comes to a close, a new one is beginning. In Part 1 of this two-part episode, Davey recounts what he encountered during the trial, how he learned to find closure outside of the courtroom, and the way the picture of his earthly father helped him deeply understand the posture of His heavenly one in the depths of his pain. Whether you've been following Davey's journey since the beginning or if you are new to the Nothing is Wasted family, this episode will remind you that even in the complicated parts of our story, God is ever so near.

There are moments in life where in an instant, everything changes. How do you choose joy when your whole life is blindsided by pain? How do you find hope when you don't even know what the next hour may bring? For Kelli Campbell-Goodnow, she never imagined the turn her life would take one night in January 2016. As she went to sleep, her life was good with her loving husband, United States Marine CH-53 pilot Major Shawn Campbell and her four children that she homeschooled at their dream duty station in Hawaii. But when she awoke, she got the call that every military wife fears, there had been an accident. For five days, rescue workers searched for the wreckage of a two helicopter collision off the coast. Soon thereafter, the search ended and Shawn was among the twelve Marine lives lost. Kelli would have to immediately step into a completely unknown life. She would pack up her home and move across the country to be with family. She would decide to put her kids in school instead of homeschooling. And she would remind herself that while everything around her was changing, God did not. Davey and Kelli discuss why it is important to pay attention to the small details of our stories as they unfold, the daily act of surrender that grief requires of us, and the ways we can trust God even when our lives change completely. Kelli's story will help you face whatever circumstances you are in with a determined perspective to see God in the midst of it.

Losing a spouse is devastating. Losing a spouse to suicide is full of layers of pain and questions. How do you even begin to wrap your mind around such a traumatic event and how do you walk your children through their pain? What do you do when a new tragedy stirs up your past wounds and hurts from your childhood? Blake Williams has spent the last year navigating those questions and so many more after losing his wife, Hope, to suicide. Having wrestled with mental health issues and chronic pain, Hope took her life in the couple's home and Blake found himself in the middle of a story he had never imagined for himself or his five children. As he has started to heal and move forward, the pain was a reminder of some of the past lies that haunted him his whole life after being abandoned and rejected by his parents. Blake could have easily allowed the old scripts he so often felt in his life to become his reality, but instead, he decided to shift his perspective from that of a victim into a victor. In this transparent conversation, Davey and Blake talk about the importance of not allowing our past to dictate our future, the paradigm shift that is necessary to keep us from going under from our hurt, and the value in learning to speak truth to the lies we are believing. You'll be encouraged to look through a different lens when it comes to your history, no matter what you have experienced.

There are some stories with such unfathomable pain that it can seem impossible to ever see a glimpse of redemption throughout them. When the depth of heartbreak is so great, how can you ever see the light of goodness again? Jerry Sittser has walked a road of catastrophic loss that most of us cannot even imagine. In 1991, Jerry, his wife, mother, and children were hit head on by a drunk driver. In an instant, life as Jerry knew it was completely over as the wreck claimed the life of his wife, his young daughter, his mother and the wife and unborn child of the other driver. There in the complete wreckage of his life, Jerry slowly began to learn how the most excruciating of suffering can grow the soul in unimaginable ways. The lessons Jerry learned through his own grief have served as a healing balm to many through his groundbreaking book, A Grace Disguised How the Soul Grows Through Loss. Recently revised for a 25th Anniversary edition, Jerry vulnerably shared how grief has not only changed him, but grown him in ways that only suffering can. Through his story, he recognizes how all griefs, whether comparable or not to his own, invite us to step in to a grace that transforms us. In this episode, Davey talks with Jerry about how experience can and ultimately has to be the catalyst for our growth, the tensions that exist in pain and suffering, and how to step into the questions that inevitably come from our greatest heartbreak. With a hard won wisdom, a theological richness, and a profound outlook, Jerry's insight will help you process any grief you've experienced through a completely new lens. This conversation is one you'll want to listen to more than once as you glean from the deep well of Jerry's experience and wisdom.
