Boundless Immigration, a leader in global workforce mobility, has acquired Localyze, a Europe-based mobility platform backed by General Catalyst and Y Combinator. The deal unites two major players serving top organizations across Europe and the Americas, creating a single platform for managing employee visas, relocation, and compliance worldwide.
“Global companies face a maze of immigration uncertainty, and the cost of a delayed or denied petition is immense,” said Xiao Wang, CEO and Co-Founder of Boundless. “By uniting with Localyze, we replace that complexity with a single, intelligent approach that combines our legal expertise with tech-forward solutions.”
What the Combined Platform Offers
-
Expanded Global Footprint: In-country support across the Americas, Europe, and key APAC markets.
-
Predictable Legal Costs: 24/7 access to a global legal network for both HR teams and employees, reducing surprise expenses.
-
Holistic Employee Support: Comprehensive relocation and immigration services for employees and families, boosting retention.
-
AI-Powered Compliance: Automated document verification, predictive risk analysis, and accelerated petition processing for higher approval rates.
Hanna Asmussen, CEO and Co-Founder of Localyze, noted that joining Boundless accelerates the company’s mission: “Our goal has always been to remove geographic barriers to talent. Joining Boundless is the fastest way to achieve that mission on a global scale.”
Why It Matters
In today’s climate of geopolitical uncertainty and talent competition, multinational companies often juggle multiple regional vendors, resulting in inconsistent employee experiences, compliance risks, and administrative headaches. The Boundless–Localyze integration creates a unified, predictable solution, allowing HR and mobility leaders to scale their workforce globally without the typical friction or uncertainty.
With this acquisition, Boundless positions itself as a one-stop global mobility platform, blending deep regional expertise with AI-driven efficiency—a potentially game-changing move for companies navigating increasingly complex international hiring landscapes.
