    Trump’s $100,000 H-1B fee could test Africa’s tech ecosystem ambitions


    Trump’s new $100,000 H-1B visa fee is more than a number. It could change the paths African tech workers take and how startups access talent.

Some professionals might explore alternative visas, work remotely, or even return home, bringing skills and salaries back to Africa. In the short term, diaspora investment in local startups could dip, but in the long run this shift could unlock new opportunities for Africa’s tech ecosystems.
