It makes me wonder what is a Societas Europaea then. I thought it was some kind of pan-European legal entity, even though it's probably not suited for startups at all, as it looks quite complicated to set-up from what I read on Wikipedia. If anyone has more insights, I am interested to learn more about that.

IIRC basically the SE is indeed complicated and has a bunch of requirements that would not make sense for a startup. Plus, it isn’t really a common denominator for different corporate laws, but they kinda add together so now you need to know about laws in Germany AND laws in Spain AND etc, wherever you operate.
