About this Event

Starting a business involves more than just having a great idea—it requires understanding the legal framework that supports and protects your business. In this comprehensive workshop, we'll guide you through the legal essentials every startup needs to know, from choosing the right business entity to staying compliant with state and federal regulations.

In this workshop, you will learn:

  • How to select the right business entity (LLC, corporation, sole proprietorship, etc.) based on your goals and needs.
  • The step-by-step process for registering and incorporating your business with the State of Pennsylvania.
  • How to apply for your Employer Identification Number (EIN) and understand its importance for your business.
  • An overview of the latest compliance requirements, including the Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI) and the PA Act 122 reporting requirements, and how to meet them.

This session is perfect for new entrepreneurs, small business owners, and startups looking to navigate the often-overwhelming legal aspects of getting their business off the ground. You’ll walk away with practical knowledge to confidently tackle the legal steps required to launch and maintain your business.
