It’s wild because I watched this video exactly 6 months ago when I first found out about this visa and if I’m being honest it was so overwhelming at first just thinking through how I would get all the references letters and evidence. But here I am having been endorsed a few days ago. To everyone thinking of applying for this visa route it’s a tough and long journey at first but just keep pushing and it eventually comes. Thank you Isaac for the inspiration, your video was the first thing I ever watched about this visa and it made me believe

I'm from the music & post production (film) side, and hoping to apply for GTV. Still haven't found one who got in through my field, so I can learn how to apply.

[@emekapaul3684]

Hello Isaac! 4 weeks is not a long time to stumble on a timeless well scripted video like yours. Two things caught my attention: 1. I am putting together my evidences to apply for Technation visa. My concern is that I work for a Microsoft Partner in Nigeria and we support clients that uses tools like M365, Azure, Dynamics CRM, Office365. I want to know if my firm could pass for a digital technology company. 2. You made a 19.44 minutes video on a topic without breaking a sweat or looking through a book and you did justice to the topic from A-Z. All subject t matters well explained. You just unlocked a gem right there as one of your hidden talents. Credit for a job well done. I did like to this conversation a notch higher you.

[@isaacafrica]

Thanks for the kind words, Emeka. In your case, while your Microsoft Partner experience could serve as additional pieces of evidence, you still need to have direct experience in a product-led company. If you really want to do this, simply get to work for a Product-Led Tech Company or Startup and build some result-driven experiences there for about 6months to one year. Then

No interviews. After submission, you only get an email confirming your endorsement or otherwise

[@UchechiNwigwe]

Thanks, Isaac for simplifying the process. I have a few questions. Must your referees be in the company where you demonstrated a product impact? i.e. what if they have left that company, can they still support your application? what do you tender as evidence for commercial impact? would MPR PowerPoint presentations on product growth count? Finally, could you share any checklist, template or guide?

[@isaacafrica]

Hi Uchechi, you’re most welcome! No, your referees don’t have to be in the company where you demonstrated a product impact. None of my two referees work where I work(ed). Only ensure they’re top leaders in a Product-Led Tech company. For commercial impact, pieces of evidence like company revenue, user base growth, etc., and particularly HOW you contributed to making it happen would do great. PowerPoint Presentations won’t count, ensure to get the actual screenshots on product growth count and the likes. Best!

Hi, thank you for this video. Can IT department of a bank be taken as a product led tech company with QA/tester role for all products to ve deployed

[@isaacafrica]

Hi Akinbola. Is the bank product-led? Has it also got an App/Web platform where customers use its services? If your answers are YES, you're good to go!

[@isaacafrica]

The “digital technology sector” or “product-led digital technology companies” are defined as businesses that provide a proprietary digital technical service/product/platform/hardware as their primary revenue source. The creation of software, processing/storage of data, or the creation/application of technical computing hardware is often a central aspect of their business model. [This excludes general consultancies, outsourcing and technology-related consultancy groups focused on process/service delivery or solutions/systems architecture. Such firms do not meet the guidelines, particularly those primarily serving large corporate or multinational corporate (MNC) customers. Work at specific agencies may be considered if the agencies are extremely focused on product innovation in a specific industry and are well-recognized for their contributions to that industry.]

1. A product-led tech company is a company where the business IS the product. They are guided by the potential of products and product teams, and breaking down the silos between “the business” and “the product”. Examples include Piggyvest, Afrilearn, Paystack etc ((Their product/business is their Mobile App/Web platforms). 2.

[@isaacafrica]

Based on the information you provided, it sounds like you may be eligible for the UK Global Talent visa. As a software developer with over 16 years of experience and having established your own software company, you may have a strong case for this visa. However, keep in mind that the eligibility requirements are quite specific, so it's important to carefully review them to ensure you meet all the necessary criteria. One of the main requirements for the Global Talent visa is to demonstrate exceptional talent or promise in your field. To do this, you'll need to provide evidence of your accomplishments and contributions to the software development industry, as well as any awards, publications, or other recognitions you've received. Your company's success and impact on the mining industry could also be relevant to your application. Good luck with your application!

Hi Isaac, thanks for this video. I have a couple of questions. 1. After you get the endorsement from Tech Nation, how soon must you apply for the visa? 2. After your visa is approved, how soon must you move to the UK?

[@isaacafrica]

Hi Precious. It's within 3 months. But I'd advise you to apply for your visa almost immediately your endorsement comes in. Best!

@@isaacafrica Thank you!

Hi, Please, can you provide a sample personal statement you used? Also, when you said product led companies. Are you talking about the likes of teamApt, interswitch? Lastly, can someone who works presently at Microsoft as a software engineer write a recommendation letter if you have both led a role in other digital business before or must it come from CEO? Thank you

[@isaacafrica]

Yes, Interswitch, TeamApt are good examples of Product-Led and a recommendation letter from someone at Microsoft is great. All the best!
