Startups need immigrants.
Germany only accept immigrants from EU, not from China or India which produce cheapest empoyees offering max value. One key difference is that Startups lack fund. So either: 1. Funding be made more generous by offering tax advantages to invesitors 2. Or, biggest expense are employees, so we need employees accepting a dream stock unit and very low wage, so we can hire more of them. But I've talked with German employees, literally, none of them will accept more money for more work. There is very strong emphasis on work life balance unlike US. So only way to overcome this issue is to get larger funding and that's smth government needs to fix. That way startup can become more competitive. |

I'm Australian, and it was easy to get my Blue Card, and more recently my permanent residency in Germany. Compared to the nightmare of dealing with the UK Home Office, moving to Germany was a breeze.
(For those who don't know: if you have a 4-year degree, and can get a job-offer that pays €48K or above, you can easily get a Blue Card, which lets you work in Germany. Keep that job, and after 21 months, you can get a Niederlassungserlaubnis (permanent residency) with B2-level German, or after 33-months with rudimentary German. It's an amazing deal.)
