Inhaltsangabe

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the issues that founders of startups regularly face. The business models of startups typically exhibit significant growth and scaling potential and often target digital markets. The trade-off between low initial capital and early expansion of business activities requires venture capital or other sources of funding.

In addition to presenting the various legal questions that arise—from choosing an appropriate legal structure at the outset of a startup to issues affecting a wide range of business operations—the book also contains extensive information on financing options for startups. Additionally, it includes concrete suggestions for business regulations and other important documents.

As a comprehensive guide, the book offers valuable insights into legal matters that (not only) founders of startups should consider.
