What's affecting me, my clients, my colleagues and other global small business owners:

• When it comes to growing and expanding a business or startup internationally, there are essentials to take care of and mistakes to avoid that you should know about.
• Starting global: why international business presence is the key to post Brexit success.
• An estimated 4.7 million fewer girls are expected to be born globally in the next 10 years because of sex-selective practices in countries with a cultural preference for male offspring, a trend that could undermine social cohesion in the long term, research recently showed. 
• Quote of the week:  “Maintaining confidence in international trade will be critical to the broader economic recovery in the post-Covid world." – Liz Truss
• The instant collapse of Afghanistan represents a major change in the global balance of power, threatening America and the major democracies.
• Rethinking the economy – new approaches to economic challenges.
