    Limited Company Or Not

    Even if you have insurance, there is nothing like peace of mind that your house is never going to be at risk from an unexpected issue that burns down a purchaser's house. The cost of a limited company is so low in the UK that I wouldn't hesitate.

    We are a startup in the Healthcare business and need your direction to move

    Your website seems to be selling an in vitro diagnostic device, not respiratory/critical care. Putting that aside, these devices all have heavy regulatory compliance requirements. Have you sorted that out?
