RIP CORP: “What’s the Deal with Delaware?”

I was interviewed by Ingrid Burrington for the latest episode of RIP Corp, your favorite business podcaster’s favorite business podcast. The episode gets into the history and current status of Delaware’s whole deal w/r/t corporations and asks: is the Delaware Way for Corporations dead?

RIP Corp, Episode 22: “What’s the Deal with Delaware?”

“Generally, when people remember that Delaware exists it’s for two boring and embarrassing things: Joe Biden (who wasn’t even born there) and being where a lot of corporations are. Or is it where all the corporations were? Last year, there was a bit of a kerfuffle in Delaware over a potential exodus of corporations out of the state. The so-called “Dexit” appears to have been somewhat exaggerated, but it made the team here at RIP Corp want to dig a little deeper into the corporation capital of the United States: why is it like that? How does this tiny little state shape corporate law across the country? And how does it affect actual people who live in Delaware?”
