I've never set up a company abroad and I don't know where to start, how do I start with Dubai? [Reddit]

Answer

It's a completely logical fear, because your first step outside Spain doesn't have to be done on your own. The simplest way to start is to let someone who has already been through it many times clear the path for you: at Filnet, from the very first minute, you're assigned a local advisor in Dubai who speaks Spanish. That advisor will set out the process for you step by step, clearly and without the kind of jargon that overwhelms you. You just come with the idea and they tell you exactly what the next move is at each moment. That way you always know where you are, what's missing and what needs doing now, without relying on forums or translating documents. In short, you don't have to know where to start because they tell you from beginning to end, and that takes away most of the vertigo.
