Here are some interesting facts about immigrants in America:

Over 43% of fortune 500 companies are founded by Immigrants and children of immigrants. Some companies that were founded by immigrant or have an immigrant co-founder include Tesla, eBay, Yahoo, Google, YouTube, and many other reputable global companies.  

Immigrants are more likely to own a company with 10 or more employees in America.

The children of Immigrants enjoy higher earnings and are less likely to be in poverty than their native-born counterparts.

All of the above is true despite the fact that first and second generation immigrants make up only 26% of the entire US population.

Now, the big question is “Why?”

I am on a mission to interview 1000 immigrants across America who have scaled difficult hurdles, overcome incredible challenges, and are thriving here in the US. The goal is to answer the question, “Why are immigrants so successful in America?”

This has ignited  in me a fresh passion for sharing stories and shedding light on the experiences of those who have emigrated to the US. I am thrilled to be embarking on this journey of discovery. Through my interviews with immigrants from all walks of life and backgrounds, I hope not only to capture the diversity of this group, but also to answer this important question.

From entrepreneurs who have founded successful businesses, to professionals who have made a name for themselves in their chosen fields, to everyday individuals who have found ways to make a difference in their communities, the stories of these immigrants are inspiring and eye-opening.

Through the stories of these 1000 immigrants, I hope to challenge stereotypes, break down barriers, and encourage a greater understanding and appreciation for the contributions that immigrants make to the fabric of our society.

Ultimately, I believe that by sharing these stories, we can answer the question, “Why are immigrants so successful in America?” and also create a more welcoming and inclusive society that recognizes the value and potential of every individual, regardless of their background or country of origin.
