About Our Knowledge Center
Immigrants and their advocates can count on Serengeti Ventures as the fastest route to information, resources, and connectivity™ within the American Immigrant Ecosystem.
Our nation is a Melting Pot, and immigrants contribute enormously to our collective success. We are here to help them help us.
Our research team develops and compiles a broad range of digital content relevant to the success of immigrant entrepreneurs and innovators. We are keenly aware of the disproportionate contributions that foreign-born Americans make toward our nation’s health, socioeconomic development, and competitiveness. And we recognize that—while American-born entrepreneurs and innovators are of tremendous importance to our nation’s Gross Domestic Product—individuals who did not grow up on American soil have a harder time finding the resources they need to realize the American Dream.
Our researchers (1) identify individuals, organizations, and communities dedicated to the success of newer Americans; (2) download PDFs and other documents that these immigration supporters have placed in the public domain; and (3) make the most helpful of these resources available through hyperlinks and downloads.
