Firstly, its vibrant startup ecosystem presents an exciting environment teeming with innovation and opportunity. Situated strategically between the US and Europe, the UK offers unparalleled access to diverse markets and a wealth of networking possibilities, which I believe will greatly enhance my professional growth. Equally important was the UK&#8217;s accommodating visa policies, which played a crucial role in my decision-making process. Recognizing the significance of my partner&#8217;s career alongside my own, the UK&#8217;s inclusive approach to skilled immigration allowed us both to pursue our ambitions without compromise. This thoughtful<\/p>\n<p>Career highlights before you got your visa?<br \/>\nBefore securing my Tech Nation Visa, I immersed myself in the startup world. In 2015, I ventured into building a legal tech startup in India, akin to an early version of ChatGPT but tailored for the legal sector. This hands-on experience taught me the ropes of innovation within a specific industry. Following that, I joined an Indian bootstrapped unicorn. There, I witnessed the power of a perfect product-market fit firsthand. Seeing how well a product can sell without relying on external funding was eye-opening and invaluable for my career growth.<\/p>\n<p>Advice for applicants?<br \/>\nMy advice to future Tech Nation Visa applicants is to hone in on your core strengths and find innovative ways<br \/>\nto apply them within the tech sector.

My first visit to London almost a decade ago left me enamoured with the city\u2014a sentiment that has only grown stronger over time. Previously, in my non-tech career, I had been actively building bridges between the UK and my home country, Ukraine, fostering robust ties with the UK&#8217;s ecosystem. When I transitioned into the tech sector about five years ago, the UK was the obvious choice to fully realize my potential, thanks to its dynamic and supportive tech environment. In 2020, I made the life-changing decision to relocate here, leveraging my experience as a founder, investor, and startup mentor to secure my visa. Now, three years on, I am more convinced than ever that there&#8217;s no better place for me to live and advance my career than here in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>Career highlights before you got your visa?<br \/>\nPrior to my Tech Nation Visa, I led numerous projects as a partner at VimesVC\u2014a boutique strategic and investment consultancy focused on international business scaling. I was the principal co-organiser of the Ukrainian-British Startup Roadshows in London, which were designed to showcase exceptional startups from Eastern Europe to the UK ecosystem. I mentored dozens of early-stage founders, leveraging my experience in B2B sales, international expansion, and fundraising. I also built the MVP of a product aimed at assisting the elderly population with employment and education (currently in stealth mode). Additionally, I co-founded Blue Lake, which initially was a startup accelerator before shifting its focus to investing in UK tech companies founded by immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>Advice for applicants?<br \/>\nGo for it! When applying for the Tech Nation Visa, clearly showcase how your unique skills and experiences will enrich the UK tech ecosystem. Detail the specific impact you plan to make and emphasise any previous contributions to tech communities that demonstrate your potential. Above all, make sure your application clearly articulates your commitment to fostering growth in both your professional field and the wider UK tech industry. This isn&#8217;t just about what the UK can do for you, but what you can do for the UK.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"team-modal-item\" id=\"team-modal-132113\">\n\t<div class=\"has-brand-background-color has-white-color padding-m lg:padding-xl content-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"close-modal\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/themes\/base-theme\/assets\/svg\/assets\/XCircle.svg\" alt=\"Close Modal\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\" padding-right-xxl flex flex-col lg:flex-row lg:flex-nowrap flex-bottom-align team-member-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"team-member-thumb padding-right-m\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"aspect-ratio-31-37\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-mask-container image-mask-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure>  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-768x768.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-768x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload bg-img\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Rayan-Dawud-Headshot-1920x1920.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-parent-fit=\"cover\" data-parent-container=\"figure\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" flex flex-col flex-justify-end margin-bottom-s\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"margin-bottom-s\"><strong>Rayan Dawud<\/strong><\/h5>\n\t\t\t<h6 class=\"margin-bottom-none sml-text\">Cercli<\/h6>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"margin-top-m lg:margin-top-xl team-member-bio med-text\">\n\t\t\t<p>Nationality: Palestinian-American<br \/>\nUniversity: INSEAD<br \/>\nUK location: London<br \/>\nSector: Software<br \/>\nYear Visa Granted: 2022<\/p>\n<p>Why the UK?<br \/>\nI\u2019ve been connected to the UK for at least a decade.

The UK was the perfect hub, offering access to global tech companies along with a thriving startup ecosystem. With its strong technological infrastructure, leadership in fintech innovation, and a vibrant international community, the UK presented a myriad of interesting career opportunities for me. Especially as a marketer, I was excited by the challenge to learn about the customers, cultural insights and best in class business growth strategies in the UK and Europe.

It took me a year from the time I learnt about the visa to actually gathering the courage to apply and looking back I should&#39;ve just done it a lot sooner. It\u2019s human to get overwhelmed so I would suggest connecting with people in your industry\/role who have successfully received the visa &#8211; it is the best way to learn from their personal experience and assess your profile. If you don\u2019t feel you\u2019re ready yet, take time to build your experience so that you can eventually meet the requirements and apply.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"team-modal-item\" id=\"team-modal-132075\">\n\t<div class=\"has-brand-background-color has-white-color padding-m lg:padding-xl content-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"close-modal\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/themes\/base-theme\/assets\/svg\/assets\/XCircle.svg\" alt=\"Close Modal\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\" padding-right-xxl flex flex-col lg:flex-row lg:flex-nowrap flex-bottom-align team-member-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"team-member-thumb padding-right-m\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"aspect-ratio-31-37\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-mask-container image-mask-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure>  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq-768x768.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq-768x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload bg-img\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ProfilePic-SC-Sq.jpg 947w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-parent-fit=\"cover\" data-parent-container=\"figure\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" flex flex-col flex-justify-end margin-bottom-s\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"margin-bottom-s\"><strong>Steven Chan<\/strong><\/h5>\n\t\t\t<h6 class=\"margin-bottom-none sml-text\">Oracle<\/h6>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"margin-top-m lg:margin-top-xl team-member-bio med-text\">\n\t\t\t<p>Nationality: Hong Kong<br \/>\nUniversity: The Chinese University of Hong Kong<br \/>\nUK location: London<br \/>\nSector: Enterprise Software &#038; Cloud Computing<br \/>\nYear Visa Granted: 2020<\/p>\n<p>Why the UK?<br \/>\nThere were several compelling reasons for choosing the UK as the next step in my career.  Firstly, London&#8217;s status as a global hub attracts a wealth of talent from diverse backgrounds, fostering a truly international environment.  Secondly, the UK&#8217;s central time zone bridges the gap between the Americas, Europe, and Asia, allowing for seamless collaboration across these key markets.  The UK&#8217;s thriving tech scene boasts a deep pool of expertise in cloud computing and AI, areas I&#8217;m particularly passionate about.  Furthermore, the country&#8217;s strong research and engineering culture, coupled with its progressive approach to FinTech and HealthTech, creates a fertile ground for innovation. In my view, the UK digital sector is particularly dynamic, especially post-pandemic.  Industries across the board are embracing new ideas and actively seeking solutions that leverage cutting-edge cloud and AI technologies responsibly and ethically. While there&#8217;s a rich history to be preserved, the UK&#8217;s willingness to embrace digital transformation presents a wealth of exciting opportunities, and I&#8217;m eager to be a part of it.<\/p>\n<p>Career highlights before you got your visa?<br \/>\nIn a previous role at Microsoft before I move to the UK, I had the good fortune to be the Global Cloud Solution Architect for the financial industry. There, I led HSBC group&#8217;s global cloud adoption, focusing on driving digital innovation. One project I&#8217;m particularly proud of is migrating HSBC PayMe to the Azure Cloud. This was the first banking app in Hong Kong to be hosted in public cloud, navigating all the regulatory hurdles.  Not only did it empower HSBC to grow and innovate faster, but it also opened the door for other Hong Kong banks to embrace the cloud, something previously deemed impossible. It&#8217;s great to see so many banks operating with the cloud now! HSBC PayMe even received the FinTech Grand Award, a real testament to the project&#8217;s success. <\/p>\n<p>Advice for applicants?<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t be discouraged by &#8220;exceptional talent&#8221;: While the term sounds daunting, the Tech Nation Visa recognizes the value of skilled and passionate individuals like yourself.

People do say the UK is a \u2018melting pot\u2019 of different cultures, but I would say it is a \u2018mosaic\u2019 \u2013 old meets new, multiculturalism \u2013 in one picture making greater goods for society while embracing individual differences. This is the place where the oldest industry, finance, meets the newest industry, technology. Technology needs this cohesive and inclusive energy as a soft power fuelling the innovation engine. <\/p>\n<p>Besides, I have been fascinated by the world-class and well-rounded FinTech ecosystem in the UK. This has been supported by the progressive financial and technology regulations which have cultivated a safe environment to encourage innovative use of technology. This has attracted the influx of strong capital influx and tech talents across the globe in the UK, manifesting the breeding ground for more FinTech innovations. <\/p>\n<p>Career highlights before you got your visa?<br \/>\nTransitioning from the trading floor to digital, I was a founding member of Mox Bank, the first venture by Standard Chartered, to build the first cloud-native bank from obtaining the new virtual bank licence to launching the bank and enabling the hyper-growth phase. Embedding cyber and trust in digital products has been my passion. <\/p>\n<p>Advice for applicants?<br \/>\nBe clear about your motivation for why you want to be in the UK and how you could contribute to the UK tech sector. Read the Tech Nation Visa Guide carefully since it provides a lot of details as to what is expected. Sit down and strategise how to present the evidence succinctly.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"team-modal-item\" id=\"team-modal-131974\">\n\t<div class=\"has-brand-background-color has-white-color padding-m lg:padding-xl content-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"close-modal\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/themes\/base-theme\/assets\/svg\/assets\/XCircle.svg\" alt=\"Close Modal\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\" padding-right-xxl flex flex-col lg:flex-row lg:flex-nowrap flex-bottom-align team-member-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"team-member-thumb padding-right-m\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"aspect-ratio-31-37\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-mask-container image-mask-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure>  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-22-at-10.53.39.png\" data-src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-22-at-10.53.39.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload bg-img\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-22-at-10.53.39.png 558w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Screenshot-2024-04-22-at-10.53.39-296x300.png 296w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-parent-fit=\"cover\" data-parent-container=\"figure\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" flex flex-col flex-justify-end margin-bottom-s\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"margin-bottom-s\"><strong>Deepak Paramanand<\/strong><\/h5>\n\t\t\t<h6 class=\"margin-bottom-none sml-text\">Director of Artificial Intelligence<\/h6>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"margin-top-m lg:margin-top-xl team-member-bio med-text\">\n\t\t\t<p>Nationality: India<br \/>\nUK Location: London<br \/>\nCompany: JPMorgan Chase &#038; Co.<br \/>\nRole: Director of Artificial Intelligence<br \/>\nIndustry: Finance<br \/>\nYear Moved to UK \/ Visa Granted: 2018 \/ 2022<\/p>\n<p>Why the UK?<br \/>\nMicrosoft wanted a product manager who was capable of launching a computer vision product and willing to move to London. Back then, apart from DeepMind, there weren\u2019t many big AI companies in the UK. I saw the opportunity to build AI expertise in the UK and help grow the industry here. The UK is also so forward-thinking in climate and sustainability. Plus, London is an eclectic mix of technology, finance, and food \u2013 there\u2019s a vegan menu at every restaurant!<\/p>\n<p>UK Career Highlights<br \/>\nI launched Microsoft\u2019s first B2C computer vision product on a mobile phone, SwiftKey, which attracted around three million users and maintained a 4.3 rating on the app store for over 400 days! At JPMorgan, we\u2019re focused on research for AI innovations that are several years out to maintain the edge we have in the industry. I lead on synthetic data and LLM products. I\u2019m publishing my first research-level paper and filing a patent application on my research. I also advise a startup using AI simulations and I\u2019m a trustee of the Darbar Arts Culture Heritage Trust, which makes Indian classical art more accessible globally.<\/p>\n<p>Advice For Global Talent<br \/>\nKeep calm and carry on! This attitude of putting your head down, doing your work, and carrying on has been so important for me. I also live more frugally in the UK than I did in the US, and I\u2019m more conscious of my environmental impact. Have a mindset of living sustainably<br \/>\nwithin your means. The UK cares deeply about climate change and sustainability, so align to that mindset.<\/p>\n<p>What Can the UK Do More?<br \/>\nI like the fact that the UK gives us research grants, because you need an avenue for people to go and experiment, but I don\u2019t like that there are a lot of strings attached. The UK could further support policies to drive more innovation and maintain its competitive edge. The UK also leads in climate tech, but must enable more companies to make sustainable changes happen faster. Talk more about successes locally and globally to inspire others.<\/p>\n<p>Future Plans?<br \/>\nI just got my British citizenship! There\u2019s so much to do here, I\u2019m creating a lot of impact, and I plan to stay in the UK and contribute to the sustainable development of AI. I love creating things from zero and, ultimately, I want to be an entrepreneur when the timing is right. For<br \/>\nnow, I\u2019m living every day in the present and building skills so I can do better in the future.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"team-modal-item\" id=\"team-modal-132077\">\n\t<div class=\"has-brand-background-color has-white-color padding-m lg:padding-xl content-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"close-modal\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/themes\/base-theme\/assets\/svg\/assets\/XCircle.svg\" alt=\"Close Modal\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\" padding-right-xxl flex flex-col lg:flex-row lg:flex-nowrap flex-bottom-align team-member-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"team-member-thumb padding-right-m\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"aspect-ratio-31-37\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-mask-container image-mask-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure>  \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2-768x768.jpg\" data-src=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2-768x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"lazyload bg-img\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/technation.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/tn_pic2.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-parent-fit=\"cover\" data-parent-container=\"figure\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\" flex flex-col flex-justify-end margin-bottom-s\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"margin-bottom-s\"><strong>Vasudev Maduri<\/strong><\/h5>\n\t\t\t<h6 class=\"margin-bottom-none sml-text\">Admiral Group PLC<\/h6>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"margin-top-m lg:margin-top-xl team-member-bio med-text\">\n\t\t\t<p>Nationality: Indian<br \/>\nUniversity: Indian School of Business<br \/>\nUK location: London<br \/>\nSector: InsurTech<br \/>\nYear Visa Granted: 2022<\/p>\n<p>Why the UK?<br \/>\nI chose the UK as the next stage of my career due to a combination of factors. Following my initial visit for a conference in 2019, I was inspired by the vibrant tech landscape and diverse opportunities present within the country. Engaging with tech leaders across various industries during the conference ignited a keen interest in contributing to the UK&#8217;s tech sector. Additionally, my involvement in freelance projects for UK-based clients provided valuable insights into the market dynamics and innovation potential. Furthermore, I am drawn to the UK&#8217;s emphasis on work-life balance and commitment to diversity, factors that align with my professional values. By leveraging the latest technology trends and fostering industry growth, I aim to contribute to the advancement of the tech sector in the UK while concurrently expanding my knowledge and expertise in this dynamic environment.<\/p>\n<p>Advice for applicants?<br \/>\nFor innovators aspiring to make a meaningful impact on society, relocating your project to the UK offers an abundance of opportunities. However, it&#8217;s crucial to strategically select opportunities aligned with your business needs, considering the multitude of options available. Prioritize networking by attending events and actively participating in the community to unlock unforeseen opportunities and expand your professional network.
