This was one of our Lunch and Learns featuring Gareth back in 2024!
Enjoy a seated dinner while connecting with other founders, based in Vancouver or internationally!
Hosted by Gareth Westwood - immigration and citizenship consultant with 25 years of experience across the US, Canada, UK, and Ireland.
This session cuts through the noise with practical, up-to-date guidance for digital nomads, remote workers, founders, and anyone thinking seriously about international movement - whether that’s a short-term crossing or a long-term relocation strategy.
What we’ll cover:
Global visa updates and what’s actually changing in 2025
Inbound to Canada: tech immigration pathways and strategic options
US/Canada border crossings - what to know, what to prepare, and hands-on guidance
Migration pathways across the US, UK, Japan, and beyond
