A frequent concern I hear from aspiring entrepreneurs is “I have invented a great product, but I have no idea where to start in setting up a company, to avoid all the tax and legal problems I hear about on the news.” In fact, this is a complex question, with answers that are different all around the world, but I have some general rules of thumb that apply here in the USA to get you started: Create a business entity early to encapsulate your venture.

As you may know we run an annual conference called The Upfront Summit in which we try to bring together the world of investors, entrepreneurs and interesting people from the world of sports, politics, music & film.

Making a decision to sell your business is hard. Doing it wisely is even tougher. Finding a good business broker can simplify the process immensely while allowing you to get exactly what you want in return. Many business brokers are well-qualified to sell businesses.

“The unexamined life is not worth living” – Socrates. Every entrepreneurial journey is different, but there are some underlying similarities. The same is true that the industry you are in does not matter. You could be a tech start-up or someone conceiving a meditation Toronto brand.

With an increased number of virtual teams and remote jobs, offices nowadays are much different from what they used to be. An office is not just a place any more, but rather a space for creative exchange and mutual inspiration. It is where we come together to share a smile and enjoy a collaborative living. Cubicles and boring white-walled rooms give way to more flexible and open co-working spaces.
