From the quiet charm of Gwalior to the vibrant pulse of London, Pranjula’s journey began with the Global Talent Visa. Working remotely during the lockdown, she discovered the incredible opportunity that would soon transform her life. Moving to the UK opened new doors and perspectives, but it also revealed how complex the process could be for others like her—particularly artists and cultural professionals trying to navigate it alone. Determined to make a difference, she set out to help others understand and access this life-changing pathway.
Abhishek, a seasoned tech founder with more than a decade in technology and media, arrived in the UK in 2022 unaware of this visa route. It wasn’t until 2023 that he applied—facing challenges, even rejection, before applying again just 10 days later. His experience opened his eyes to how many talented innovators miss opportunities simply due to lack of information or guidance. Together, Pranjula and Abhishek founded Horizon & Bloom to simplify the Global Talent Visa journey—helping ambitious minds move, grow, and thrive in the UK.
