Startups Speak: It Should be Easier to Start a Business

Rutul Davé is the founder of Bright Funds, a online platform for consumers and businesses that is reinventing effective charitable giving. Rutul has been in the United Stated for twelve years, initially moving to study for his Masters degree in Computer Science at USC. Right after graduating, he moved to the Bay Area and fell in love with the atmosphere of innovation. Inspired by his own father’s entrepreneurship, and his new surroundings, Rutul decided he wanted to create something too. A green card made starting Bright Funds possible, and he hopes that the new Invest Visa for founders will make possible for others, what was possible for him. And beyond making it possible, Rutul also hopes it will make starting a business easier. Watch Rutul tell his story:
