Description
The Talent Mobility Fund, a program of Renaissance Philanthropy, supports new ideas and initiatives that expand opportunities for international scientists, engineers, and other highly skilled professionals to work and thrive in the United States. Its U.S. STEM immigration call focuses on increasing the uptake and impact of immigration pathways available under current law.
The fund seeks thoughtful, scalable plans that combine implementation capacity, measurable outcomes, and a clear public interest objective. It is especially interested in initiatives led or supported by organizations with substantive immigration-law expertise. Its broader goals connect international talent mobility with scientific discovery, innovation, high-growth businesses, and economic opportunities for Americans.
