This white paper was created to help founders understand the steps involved in starting a Web3 business in France. It draws on ten years of supporting businesses of different sizes, from very small companies to multinationals, followed by the founder’s first two years working with Web3 companies through HODL Consulting.
The original announcement opened with a statistic about start-up failure attributed to INSEE. That figure is not repeated here because the announcement did not identify the underlying study, population or measurement period.
What the white paper covers
- Choosing a company structure for the founder’s situation, with access to a simulator.
- Understanding the tax framework, including VAT and corporate or personal income taxation. An unsuitable VAT choice can affect cash flow during development.
- Understanding a shareholders’ agreement when there are co-founders. The original publication highlighted the damage that disagreements between founders can cause.
- Addressing the main GDPR considerations from the company’s creation.
- Preparing general terms and conditions of sale.
- Hiring a first employee.
