He grew it into one of the largest hostel companies in Eastern Europe, moved to Moscow, built several more companies, and ultimately found his way to New York.Along the way, Dan went through the immigration process himself, getting an O-1, EB-1 and eventual citizenship. He also experienced immigration from the company side: hiring and sponsoring immigrants across his own businesses and seeing how expensive, slow, and frustrating it was.That combination of personal immigration experience, founder experience, and corporate hiring pain ultimately led him to build Manifest, an AI-powered immigration law firm designed to make high-quality immigration support faster, more accessible, and more aligned with how modern companies and immigrants actually need legal services to work.So, here’s what we’re going to talk about:🔹 Dan’s early life in Crimea, Ukraine, and starting his first company at 11 years old🔹 Dan’s experience building businesses across Eastern Europe before eventually moving to NYC🔹 Dan’s immigration journey from O-1 to EB-1 to US Citizen, and what led to building Manifest Law🔹 How Manifest is different, fundraising in legal, thoughts on the future of legal, and more!So please join us, ask questions and leave comments!----Check out Manifest here: https://manifestlaw.com/Follow Dan on LinkedIn here: / danielmishin Digital marketing for immigration & global mobility firms at GMI Rocket: https://gmirocket.com/​Digitize your LCA posting and PAF process with LaborLess: https://laborless.io/

Along the way, she also became Miss Singapore Supranational 2020, started her first company at 18, worked in venture, joined Google, and eventually taught herself how to code before.Because Rachael moved so often herself, especially in her early twenties and often on a small budget, she became the person friends and peers would ask: “How do you actually move?” What started as personal curiosity and lived experience eventually turned into a much bigger question around why relocation is still so fragmented, expensive, and difficult for businesses.That experience ultimately led her to launch Gullie, an AI-powered relocation platform helping companies move and integrate employees faster as they expand into new markets, hire global talent, and give people opportunities in the cities where they can do their best work.So, here’s what we’re going to talk about:🔹 Rachael’s early life in Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, and beyond🔹 Starting her first company at 18, working in venture and at Google, and teaching herself to code🔹 How her own global moves and personal relocation challenges led to the idea for Gullie🔹 What Gullie does today, how companies use relocation for growth, AI in mobility, and more!So please join us, ask questions and leave comments!----Check out Gullie here: https://www.gullie.io/Follow Rachael on LinkedIn here: / rachaelannabelle Digital marketing for immigration & global mobility firms at GMI Rocket: https://gmirocket.com/​Digitize your LCA posting and PAF process with LaborLess: https://laborless.io/

Educated in the French school system, she eventually moved to the UK, where her family transitioned from diplomatic life to navigating the realities of immigration themselves and where she later became a naturalized British citizen.After studying law in both the UK and France, Nisan built a career across several sides of immigration: corporate immigration law, UK government policy, and legal market research.

Drawn to technology, he studied computer science and had a career at 3 of the “Big 4,” where he eventually worked in global mobility and workforce planning while also traveling extensively around the world. He saw firsthand how repetitive and manual many global mobility processes still wereDuring his years in corporate, Benjamin had an experience that would shape him forever:he was wrongfully arrested in London because he matched a written description. He was held in a jail cell for almost 24 hours, and while there he started to reflect on the systems, biases, and the ways institutions impact peoples’ lives. Maybe he couldn’t change policing, but he COULD change the industry he knew - mobility - using his skills in AI and technology.Those experiences ultimately led him to launch The Cozm, an AI-powered platform helping global mobility teams automate repetitive work to focus more on strategy, talent, and human impact.So, here’s what we’re going to talk about:🔹 Benjamin’s family’s immigration journey and early life across Sweden, Nigeria and the UK🔹 How Benjamin got into technology and his long career within the Big 4 building global products🔹 How Benjamin’s wrongful arrest and his work experience inspired him to launch The Cozm🔹 What The Cozm does today, who his clients are, where the company is going and thoughts on AISo please join us, ask questions and leave comments!----Check out The Cozm here: https://thecozm.com/Follow Benjamin on LinkedIn here: / benjaminoghene Digital marketing for immigration & global mobility firms at GMI Rocket: https://gmirocket.com/​Digitize your LCA posting and PAF process with LaborLess: https://laborless.io/
