Enough of that, let's March on with the tech news. — Christine and Haje

Apropos e-bikes: The e-bike market in America is getting a brave new player. Off the back of its $7.4 million Series A funding close, Velotric announced this week that it will be doubling down on U.S. expansion with its privately owned e-bikes, Rita reports.

Another fistful for you, with less bike content than you might expect from the intro above.

Dear Sophie: What are my options for changing my status from an L-1 visa?

Dear Sophie,

I started working for my current employer on STEM-OPT, but I've lost out in the H-1B lottery four times. Thankfully, my employer transferred me to an international office, and I am now coming back to the U.S. on an L-1 visa.

I've heard many complaints from my classmates about not being able to switch employers on an L-1 visa. I don't see myself staying at my employer for six more years, which is the estimated time until I can get a green card based on my employer's internal policy.

What are my options for changing my immigration status so I can work at a startup in the U.S. within a year or two?
