Thought Leader of the Year for Shaping the Conversation in Immigration Law
Presented to a voice in the immigration community who is influencing how the field thinks, debates, and evolves — through writing, speaking, advocacy, or public engagement. This award honors those who move the conversation forward.
Irina Rostova deserves recognition for her extensive work and training in the area of EB-5, where she has expanded the ability of immigration attorneys to confidently offer this complex visa category to their clients. As both a FINRA-licensed broker and immigration attorney, I've seen firsthand how she educates fellow lawyers through online groups and hands-on workshops hosted by her organization, EB-5 Support. As an immigrant herself, Irina brings passion and authenticity to her work in support of EB-5 making her a prime example of a Thought Leader in Immigration Law.
