In 2018, Mr. Silva enrolled at the Stanford Graduate School of Business with the goal of starting his own company.
“I was going to live the Stanford dream,” he said.
Instead of starting a company from scratch — Mr. Silva had co-founded one before business school and even been its chief executive — he could buy one and run it.
Mr. Silva, 34, was intrigued.
After raising a search fund of more than $30 million from a small group of investors, Mr. Silva bought MásLabor, a Virginia consulting firm specializing in employment visas, in July 2021.
