Xiao Wang, CEO & cofounder, Boundless: From immigrant to Amazon to VC-backed immigration tech leader

1 hour 5 minutes

Today, in episode 34 of the GMI Rocket show, I’m interviewing one of the immigration tech stars of the last few years: Xiao Wang, co-founder, and CEO of Boundless. I actually first heard about Boundless on an episode of The Pitch, a podcast where guests pitch their startups to a panel of VC investors. I still remember the day - I was on the bike at my gym, and I was SO HAPPY to hear immigration tech in the spotlight! Since then, Boundless has raised over $18 million, and with its last round, acquired a competitor, RapidVisa. With the new administration and general trends within the industry, there’s a huge need for tech. But immigration tech raises a lot of questions too... So here’s what we’ll be talking about::

Xiao’s early days and his family’s immigration story

Xiao’s time at Stanford and his impressive jobs after graduation

What led Xiao to business school, and his time at Amazon

How the idea for Boundless was born and how Xiao launched it

Xiao’s experience raising VC funding and acquiring a competitor

How Boundless coexists with the traditional immigration law model

The future for Boundless and the immigration industry overall And more!
