Such a company has Ltd (Limited) after its name.

Andrew Klein, the director of Spring Street Company, founded his company in 1993 with the idea of bringing a Belgian beer, Wit Beer, to the American market. However, his original approach to finding the necessary capital, by using the Internet, soon made him a pioneer in this new field. He was one of the first to understand the advantage of using the Internet as a means to attract investment capital for new business ventures. For just $200 a month, Klein was able to rent a site, present his products and contact investors all over the world. Following in his footsteps, many other entrepreneurs have been able to finance and promote their own businesses in a similar way.
Today, Wit Beer can be found in several major cities in the US and Andrew Klein predicts that consumer demand for his company’s products will continue to rise. Indeed Wit Beer already outsells some of the more exotic beers which compete in the industry.
