An entrepreneur is someone who develops a company around an innovation. In other

In a sole proprietorship, you’re the sole owner of the business. This type of
business is straight-forward and easy to launch and there may be fewer
administrative requirements compared to a partnership or corporation.
A partnership is a non-incorporated business created between two or more
people. It’s fairly easy and inexpensive to form this type of business and start-
up costs are usually split equally between partners. A legal agreement should
be drawn up to outline how profits will be shared.
A corporation is a legal entity separate from its shareholders. Corporations
offer flexible structure and an ability to divide ownership with shares, but that
makes them more complex, so it’s always a good idea to speak with a lawyer
before incorporating. This type of business may also more expensive to set up
than others.
B. What is the purpose of a partnership agreement?
It gives you and your business partners a clear understanding of the rules and
arrangements applying to your business relationship.
