How the big entrepreneurship-based programs (Canada SUV, EB-2 NIW, and HQA) compare to each other in terms of how much hands-on involvement is required from the applicant;
Why entrepreneurship-based programs more politically palatable than their more transactional golden visa and CBI peers;
What kind of research investors are actually funding with the HQA program;
