In case it's unclear from the title, the study showed that 45% of Fortune 500 companies had at least 1 founder that was an immigrant or child of an immigrant. For example, Facebook is considered "founded by an immigrant" in this categorization, which sort of surprised me at first.
The title is a bit misleading.
I get the sense that the data analysis is pretty biased toward proving a point. Having a single founder who is a second generation immigrant is not equal to having all founders being third generation + immigrants. Taking the total percentage of all founders of Fortune 500 companies might be more reasonable.
Agreed. I had to double check to see if Zuckerberg was an immigrant. He's not. But at least one of Facebook's founders is. You're right - it is misleading.
