About Us

About Fortis & Co

Fortis & Co is a legal services and business consulting platform created to support students and young entrepreneurs who are actively building businesses.

We understand that many student-led ventures begin with creativity, passion, and speed — but often without the legal structure needed to support long-term growth.

Our mission is to simplify legal access by providing affordable, approachable, and practical legal support designed specifically for early-stage entrepreneurs.

We believe legal protection should not only belong to large corporations. Every business deserves the opportunity to grow with clarity, security, and confidence.

Challenges

Common Legal Challenges We Handle

Navigating the complexities of modern law doesn't have to be overwhelming. We identify and solve these frequent roadblocks before they harm your business.

Business Started Without Legal Structure

Many student businesses launch quickly without registration or compliance planning. We help organize the legal foundation needed for growth.

No Business Permit or Registration

Operating without permits can limit business expansion and create long-term risk. We help guide businesses toward proper registration.

Brand Name Already Used by Others

A business may unknowingly use a name that already belongs to another party. This creates risk for rebranding, disputes, or legal warning.

No Agreements Between Partners

Many businesses start among friends without written agreements. This often creates conflict over ownership, profit sharing, or responsibilities.

Lack of Legal Understanding

Many young entrepreneurs do not know which legal steps matter at the beginning. We simplify legal information into understandable guidance.

Digital Business Without Protection

Businesses operating through Instagram, TikTok, or delivery platforms often lack refund policies, consumer protection, or clear business terms.

Data & Facts

The Reality of Student-Led Businesses and UMKM in Indonesia

Indonesia has more than 65 million UMKM, contributing over 60% to the national economy. However, a large percentage still operate without complete legal structure.

70-80%

Operate Informally

Many businesses start without registration, legal documentation, or operational compliance. Student-led businesses are highly represented due to low startup barriers and rapid business growth.

65-75%

Incomplete Permits

This includes missing NIB, operational licensing, and business compliance requirements. Many businesses begin generating revenue before legal preparation is completed.

20-30%

Professional Support

Most businesses rely on informal advice or self-learning. This increases exposure to legal mistakes, unclear agreements, and avoidable risks.

60-70%

Unregistered Trademarks

Without protection, businesses may face duplicate branding, ownership conflicts, or forced rebranding. This is especially common among student-owned food brands.

40-50%

Student Interest

Many students are motivated to start businesses while studying. However, only a portion build with proper legal preparation.

80%+

Digital Dependency

Instagram, TikTok, and online delivery services are common business channels. Yet many businesses still lack terms & conditions, refund systems, or consumer protection policies.

75-85%

Lack Legal Literacy

Legal awareness often comes only after a problem occurs. This creates unnecessary risk that could have been prevented earlier.

"Student entrepreneurs are building real businesses at a young age. But without legal protection, they are also scaling real risk."

Fortis & Co helps bridge the gap between business ambition and legal readiness.
