Getting started

Starting a business can be exciting, but it can be hard to know where to begin. Answer a few simple questions and we will create a custom guide for you about business registration, the licences and permits you may need, available funding opportunities, and who to contact if you have specific questions about your business.

Your custom guide is for informational purposes only, and it is no substitute for legal or financial advice. The questionnaire does not need or keep any personally identifiable information.
