We need a strict separation of business and state, especially in the USA where fascism, by definition, is rampant. The UK has no such excuse for peddling bad advice to start-ups, but they do...
There is no reason for the UK to be giving bad advice to SMEs, unless it is simply more poodleism, like the following the USA into Iraq. Does the UK government follow the USA's "get big or get out" imperative? The Scots should reconsider the No vote, but this time put freedom on the agenda.

1. Exporting helps businesses growIt's extremely simple now. The most important thing is customers, and the hardest thing is getting the product right. The MOQ is the right tactic and FOB is the right tool to prove both. Once proven, logistics and payments can be turned over to clerks.

With speakers from UK Trade and Investment and UK Export Finance, there was a clear push to make exporting simpler for SMEs. They pointed out that exporting is beneficial to both individual businesses and the UK as a whole.
2. Research the local cultureWrong and wrong. At the small business level the challenges of the target country are the problem of the buyer to whom you sell, not your problem. English is the language of trade, and while knowing foreign languages is a fundamental in being liberally educated, English is the default trade language.
Throughout the event, speakers emphasised the importance of learning about the culture of the target country and the usefulness of knowing other languages as an exporting entrepreneur.
6. Take care to protect your brand abroadIf you are as a small business "protecting your brand" in the home country shame on you. Traceability is necessary and sufficient to the task.
The steps you take to secure your company in the UK should be replicated in the country you export to.
