With the growing popularity of “golden” visas<\/a> among wealthy Americans, one country is expanding the pathways for those interested in gaining citizenship in this fashion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Greece has introduced the “Greek Startup ecosystem” \u2014 expanding citizenship opportunities beyond just an investment in real estate.<\/p>\n

Those eligible can invest around $259,000 in select startups listed on the country’s National Startup Registry, according to the official platform Elevate Greece (EG), in sectors that include real estate, defense and finance.<\/p>\n

US OFFICIALS SOUND ALARM ON ‘GOLDEN’ VISAS, CITING SECURITY RISKS, RELAXED REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“A strong culture of innovation and entrepreneurship drives the public and private sectors to join forces through Elevate Greece and reach out into global markets, promoting Greece<\/a> as a major innovation hub in Southeast Europe,” the EG website says.<\/p>\n

Americans have been increasingly seeking second citizenship residencies as an “insurance” against global uncertainty, as Fox News Digital previously reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Canada-based Mohamed Bennis, senior vice president at Arton Capital, a global financial advisory and consultancy firm, told Fox News Digital\u00a0that “golden” visa programs have become “mainstream” today.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re seeing a clear shift away from passive real estate toward more active investments<\/a> that directly support the local economy \u2014 including startups, operating businesses and private equity, with more risk but also more potential reward,” said Bennis.<\/p>\n

He added that countries need to innovate and adapt to new investor expectations.<\/p>\n

“Greece is playing to win, using popular residency policy tools to pull in tech money,<\/a> while other countries are still stuck in red tape,” said Bennis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This is a country saying, \u2018If you invest and build, we\u2019ll make it easy for you to stay.'”<\/p>\n

Arton Capital advises high-net-worth individuals<\/a> on the process of investing in citizenship or residency all around the world.<\/p>\n

“America pioneered the idea that capital and entrepreneurship should be welcomed, not punished,” said Bennis.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The Trump Gold Card<\/a> made that clear \u2014 and I think Greece is following that logic.”<\/p>\n

The Trump Gold Card was launched in December to provide a new, streamlined path to U.S. citizenship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The card is a visa for individuals who can provide substantial benefit to the United States.<\/p>\n
