LVC vs.
GmbH
The LVC and the GmbH are both good paths, depending on your case. The LVC is built for teams that bring idea, work and capital together. The GmbH fits if you want to found alone or with classic share capital. With Digihub, the LVC runs through the agent flow and we support the GmbH with our incorporation service (CHF 1,000 one-time).
