      abstract = {Explore the startup landscape of East European countries  and review the differences in the concepts of limited  liability companies and company equity in approaching the  market. This quick reference guide is structured around the  primary author, Ivan Voras, with additional chapters  written by guest collaborators. Chapters are concise and  focus on ways to overcome the various obstacles start-ups  may face. You'll benefit from regionally relevant advice on  finding problems worth solving as a startup, how to hire  people, how to raise investment rounds, and how to find and  communicate with investors. Eastern Europe has become a  region of fast growth after years of mismanagement and  stagnation, and it has become the origin of promising  startups. The last couple of years have also seen the rise  in the number of local VCs who are attempting to address  this market, as well as local incubators and accelerators.  But theres a problem: the vast majority of educational  material available in books and online are written from the  perspective of the US market and economy, and are not  directly applicable in the complicated nuances of Eastern  Europe. The European VC-Funded Startup Guide does not pull  punches to highlight the difficulties involved in starting  up from this region, but also provides workarounds and  advice on how you can overcome them. You will: Create and  manage an early-stage startup in East European countries  Run a young company, hire initial people, and raise  investments Understand venture capitalist funds, which ones  to avoid, and what to do with the early investment once you  get it.},
