Starting a new business can be overwhelming and confusing. With so many forms and legal jargon to work through it can be hard to even know where to start. Ownr aims to inspire entrepreneurship by providing a platform to launch your business digitally in Canada. As a new business, one of the first steps you should take is registering your business with the government. But, registration can be a confusing process, but with the help of Ownr you can confidently formalize your business.
