  • because with a corporation you can issue shares of ownership.

  • However, corporations are taxed at the corporate level

  • and again at the individual level.

  • A limited liability company or LLC is a hybrid business entity

  • that has a limited liability like a corporation,

  • Unlike LLCs, C corporations can go public.

  • For that reason, venture capital companies often prefer corporations.

  • An LLC is often considered easier to maintain

  • and more flexible than a corporation. LLCs can be well suited for single owners or partners.
