"Starting your own business requires being prepared to set it up and manage it, as well as to face the uncertainty and adversity it may entail. Whether you have already launched your business or are still considering this possibility, reading this book will help you overcome your fears about embarking on this venture, facilitating your understanding and awareness of the risks involved, thus preparing you to minimize and control them in the future. This work—already a classic in its field, with multiple editions published—aims to inform you about the attractive yet challenging world of entrepreneurship, explaining the entire process of creating a small enterprise, from idea generation to the first sale. Using simple, accessible language suitable for most readers, it seeks to address, step by step and objectively, the needs of those taking their first steps toward launching their own business. It also clearly and concisely presents the techniques and concepts enabling you to 'know how to manage your company.' This book has already become an essential tool for every entrepreneur. In the fifth edition, we introduced updates to chapters covering topics that, in previous editions, were found to become outdated more frequently—whether due to legislative changes or modernization of the State’s administrative apparatus. Topics such as Taxation (Chapter VII) and the Business Creation Process and Support for Business Creation (Chapters X and XII, respectively) are particularly prone to becoming outdated. Readers now have a means of ensuring permanent updates on these topics by accessing the indicated websites—whose addresses appear in the above-mentioned chapters—where abundant information on these subjects is available. The entry into force, on 1 January 2010, of the Accounting Standards System (SNC), replacing the Official Accounting Plan (POC), brought changes both to the recording and reporting of economic transactions and to the underlying philosophy of financial information reporting. Considering the target audience of this book and the level of knowledge required for a proper understanding of the newly introduced changes, the authors provide only a general conceptual framework, focusing specifically on provisions applicable to micro and small enterprises under the Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards for Small Entities (NCRF-PE)." Thank you for your attention, Diogo Silva
