Every business owner and startup founder knows the feeling and the moment when regulatory complexity stops being a background concern and becomes the deciding factor in where or whether you build your business/product.
This book tells the story about how the choice of jurisdiction (and the rules therein) can make or break a business, and also investigates the interaction between law and innovation. It is analyzed by someone who set out to understand, with scholarly precision, exactly why. The research focuses on how regulation comparatively in the EU & AU affects the startup ecosystem (including their entry, competitiveness, innovativeness, and exit), with a focus in 3 main areas: corporate governance, competition law, and Intellectual Property (Patents).
