Key Point

Concierge Service and Visa Support for Scale‑Ups 

On June 9, 2026, the United Kingdom (U.K.) government introduced a new package of support measures aimed at helping high‑growth businesses to start, scale and remain in the U.K.  

Central to the announcement is a bespoke concierge service alongside enhanced visa support, forming part of a broader effort to nurture the country’s first trillion‑dollar firm. 

New Visa Reimbursement Scheme 

The government will introduce a visa fee reimbursement scheme for high‑growth firms, particularly in: 

• Digital and technology

This measure aims to: 

• Reduce hiring costs for international talent
