US global reputation declines amid talent attraction policy concerns · 1 source tracked

Recent global polling indicates a decline in the United States' international reputation, with a median of only 37% expressing a favorable view in a Pew Research Center survey and a drop in approval for U.S. leadership according to Gallup. This erosion of brand equity is attributed to U.S. policy choices that may be hindering its historical advantage of attracting global talent. Measures such as expanded visa screening, restrictions on international students, and scrutiny of research partnerships could make the U.S. less appealing to top students and researchers, potentially impacting innovation and economic contributions from startups founded by immigrants.
