Printivo grew from a three-person team in a garage to a VC-backed company with over 50 employees.After stepping down as CEO in 2020, Oluyomi moved to the U.S. on an EB-1 visa and immediately felt the friction in the immigration process: endless emails, no structure, and no clarity. When friends and founders started reaching out with the same frustrations around O-1 and EB-1 visas, he realized the problem wasn’t just personal, it was systemic. That insight led to Agora.So, here’s what we’re going to talk about: 🔹 Olu'yomi’s early life in Nigeria, education and launching his first entrepreneurial endeavors🔹 Oluyomi’s decision to step away and experience moving to America on an EB-1 🔹 How that experience ultimately led to him launching Agora🔹 What Agora does today, who it helps, and thoughts on the future of immigration techSo please join us, ask questions and leave comments!----Check out the Agora here: https://agoravisa.com/Follow Olu'yomi on LinkedIn here:   / oluyomiojo  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/
