Abstract

Currently, there seems to be a consensus in public, national and international, that the excessive time and capital required to start a business in Brazil represent a barrier to the economic development of the country. However, this consensus does not seem to be founded on solid evidence. This undergraduate research project has the objective to build an assessment of the reality faced to establish a company in Brazil.(AU)
