What is Stripe's Atlas product and how does it support global entrepreneurship?

Stripe's Atlas is a comprehensive service designed to help entrepreneurs globally establish businesses in the United States. The product simplifies the complex process of business formation by providing entrepreneurs with a Delaware corporation, tax and legal advice, a U.S. bank account, and a Stripe payment processing account. This integrated solution addresses the significant barriers entrepreneurs outside the U.S. face when trying to access global markets. Atlas emerged from Stripe's recognition of untapped entrepreneurial talent worldwide and aims to increase the rate of new business formation rather than concentrating innovation within existing tech giants. By streamlining complicated legal and financial processes, Atlas helps diversify the online economy and enables more businesses to get started.
