DESCRIPTION

This lecture describes different types of business structures. We discuss some of the early questions that an entrepreneur must ask before committing to a business: * Will your business be a for-profit enterprise, a not-for-profit or somewhere in between? * What are the different requirements and resources necessary for your selected enterprise model? * What type of financing should you target: equity, debt, grant funding or a combination of all three?
