A business is a term that can apply to any commercial enterprise, from a family owned restaurant to a multi billion dollar global company.

A corporation is a specific legal term, where the company is separate to the individuals running it. Incorporating a business protects it from certain types of litigation. All the big companies we think of are corporations.
