ITechLaw Startup Legal Playbook
Third Edition 2025
A Quick Reference Guide to International Market Entry for Startups (and Their Lawyers) aims to provide startup founders and lawyers with a concise guide to key issues in foreign jurisdictions. The Playbook was created to help triage important issues and enable better risk assessment and questioning. Its many authors are ITechLaw lawyers from around the world experienced in working with startups. The Playbook is primarily broken into chapters by country, plus a number of umbrella chapters dealing with certain specific topics.

This publication is a result of the efforts the Startups Committee of the International Technology Law Association (ITechLaw). The committee has developed a series of foundational questions and collaborated with colleagues worldwide to create country-specific chapters. We are grateful for the overwhelming response and currently provide detailed chapters for over 70 jurisdictions. Future editions aim to include more countries, updates to reflect changing laws, and expanded questions covering specific industries and regulatory regimes. We welcome contributions for countries not listed and ideas for future expansions. We encourage you to share the playbook with clients and colleagues. (When you do so, you may include or exclude specific country chapters at your discretion.) We hope you find the following chapters helpful in your pursuit of global success.
About The Contributors – With the help of 70+ law firms around the globe, the Startup Legal Playbook is a robust wealth of knowledge to jumpstart your global expansion
