#82Hi Peter, I’m an entrepreneur looking to start a business in the EU so I can sell to people in that market. If location in a specific country doesn’t matter to me, what’s the path of least friction to getting long term residency and a business started? the path of least friction to EU citizenship assuming my business adds value to the EU?

#89Why aren't there easier more accessible law and accounting services for early stage Startups. We used clerky for most of our registration and setup but the other 90% was just them telling us consult an attorney. For non us founders it's almost impossible figure that out.
