In a press release, Clara chief executive officer Patrick Rogers said: “Start-ups are looking for a new approach to help them overcome the pain and complexity of dealing with legal matters. We are thrilled to be setting up in the DIFC, which will allow us to completely streamline the customer experience of incorporating DIFC entities.”
Since its founding, Clara has raised $3.5m from investors including 500 Startups, Techstars and Wamda.
