Welcome Tech Raises $7.5 Million to Scale AI-Driven Platform Connecting Immigrant Workers with U.S. Employers
Welcome Tech, the leading digital platform empowering immigrant workers and the employers who depend on them, has secured $7.5 million in new funding to accelerate the growth of its AI-powered ecosystem. The investment will fuel the expansion of its proprietary technology infrastructure and enhance its workforce engagement platform, which connects over 4.5 million immigrant workers to vital services such as employment opportunities, healthcare, financial tools, and education—all delivered at high quality and low cost.
This milestone follows a transformative year for the company, marked by rapid growth and increasing demand across key U.S. industries. In the past 12 months, Welcome Tech has tripled its enterprise partnerships, achieved over 200% year-over-year revenue growth in its subscription business, and solidified its position as the most trusted digital platform for immigrant households nationwide.
“This quarter represents a pivotal moment for Welcome Tech,” said Amir Hemmat, Co-Founder and CEO. “From closing a successful capital raise to launching strategic partnerships that are driving thousands of new user enrollments, we’re building momentum fast. This funding enables us to scale sustainably, move toward profitability, and deliver digital-first solutions that expand economic opportunity for the immigrant workforce—people who are essential to the fabric of our economy.”
Backed by Mission-Driven Investors
The $7.5 million round was led by a coalition of institutional investors committed to both innovation and social impact, including TTV Capital, Mubadala Capital, Westbound Equity Partners, CityRock Ventures Partners, Next Legacy Partners, and BTN Ventures.
“Welcome Tech stands at the intersection of strong business fundamentals and profound social impact,” said Oliver Libby, Managing Partner at CityRock Ventures. “Their platform is transforming a critical segment of the labor market by delivering real solutions to millions of hardworking individuals and the employers in sectors that keep America running.”
Meeting Labor Market Demand
Welcome Tech’s platform is gaining rapid adoption across industries facing persistent labor shortages—hospitality, construction, logistics, manufacturing, and financial services. Enterprise partners such as Harri.com, Esusu, Stark Carpet, Instant Financial, and Enstructure are leveraging the platform to recruit qualified workers, offer culturally relevant benefits, and improve employee retention.
By streamlining onboarding, enabling multilingual communication, and providing tailored financial and wellness resources, Welcome Tech helps employers build more inclusive, stable, and productive workforces.
“TTV Capital focuses on companies solving real-world challenges,” said Gardiner Garrard, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at TTV Capital. “Welcome Tech has built a purpose-built, tech-forward solution for one of the most underserved yet vital demographics in the U.S. economy. We’re proud to support Amir and his team as they enter their next phase of growth.”
AI-Powered Personalization at Scale
A core focus of the new funding is the advancement of Welcome Tech’s artificial intelligence capabilities. The company is investing in AI-driven automation to streamline user onboarding, personalize service delivery across multiple languages, and intelligently match members with job openings, financial products, and health resources.
These enhancements are designed to improve accessibility, reduce operational costs, and create seamless, intuitive user experiences—critical for a population often excluded from mainstream digital services.
“Westbound backs founders tackling complex problems in overlooked markets,” said Will Bumpus, Partner at Westbound Equity Partners. “Amir and Raul have a bold vision: to build the digital infrastructure that supports underserved workforces. It’s a mission that’s both socially urgent and commercially sound. We’re excited to support their journey.”
Sean Sebastian, General Partner at BTN Ventures, added, “Welcome Tech is creating a platform that serves communities with immense need and potential—communities that have long been overlooked. We’re honored to help empower millions of immigrant families to access opportunity, stability, and their rightful place in the American dream.”
With this new capital, Welcome Tech is poised to deepen its impact, expand its enterprise footprint, and continue building a more inclusive, equitable future of work.
