Man, at least read the title of the submission, even if you're not gonna be bothered reading the contents. This is clearly about EU, incorporating in either of those two places would defeat the entire purpose :)

> the legal entity you choose is possibly the least consequential

I think this is a bit of the goal with EU-INC, so people don't have to think about it as much. Right now, if you're multinational, you really have to be careful what country you use as your base. Hopefully, with something like this, in the future, you can also include a "EU-INC" in there, and advice people to just go with the simplest way. I think that's the dream at least.



> This is clearly about EU and Europe

UK is in Europe.


I am sorry to break the news, but UK is not in EU, so registering a company in UK is of the same effect as registering it anywhere else outside EU


However it is in Europe.


And yet I'm not seeing an awful lot of advantage of registering in the EU then if this campaign has to exist - clearly there's a big enough friction to registering / running a company within the EU itself.


Fair, probably shouldn't have added "Europe" in there, removed it.

Regardless, being able to incorporate in UK doesn't help much unless you're in UK yourself, given they're no longer in the EU.
