I'm interested in similar options for startups. Where was the company registered, and what would be the taxes, etc?
I would ideally want to start a company in Silicon Valley or any other tech centres of the U.S., but I guess such an option would require shelling out a great deal for taxes, offices, living expenses, salaries, etc.
Being Indian, Bangalore isn't an option either given it's rise in CoL.
- virtualwhys 11y agoOT, but any idea what the internet speed/power uptime situation is like in India these days? Thinking of traveling around (Varanasi, Goa, southeast of Bangalore) but from what I gather you're doing well with 2MBs download and most days without power outages in a given month if outside the major cities. I've done it before with spotty access/power but can get stressful scrambling for connectivity.
- ameen 11y agoMetropolitan city centres have pretty good power/connectivity (4G/LTE, Fibre 100+ Mbit connections at ~$50USD). If you can get a cheap office space (with power backup of-course), you'd be golden. Suburbs and other tier-2 cities are a bit of a gamble. A few states seem to be developing and positioning a few cities to be favourable for investment. LTE and Fibre networks are mushrooming every other day, but I'm not sure about Varansi and Goa. Bangalore has pretty decent connectivity.
- virtualwhys 11y agoThanks, helpful. I may delay my trip until the spring if that's the case (when can take time away from work). I'd like to check out some areas outside of the big cities. Obviously India is an enormous country, will just be dipping the toes.
