How many people do I need to form a corporation?

Question

It is a personal investment corp. But I am sure I need a board?

Answer 1

You only need 1 person to form a corporation.  More than one for a partnership.

Answer 2

You only need one person. The designation of "corporation" is for tax purposes and provides  protection of your personal assets should your company go bankrupt or someone sue you. In terms of the board, you can be the only member.
