Should Companies Work in Countries That Are Not LGBTQ Friendly?

People often ask me if a country is not LGBTQ friendly, should you even do business there? I think it's also worth asking what is the benefit of each, right? If let's say a company decides to not work in a country, will that space be occupied by someone else? With that is the case, have you actually lost the opportunity to influence the client or other stakeholders with your values? So I think for me being part of a conversation is very important. And I personally am supportive of companies working in different countries because it gives them the opportunity to become an embassy of values within that country which may not fully align with a broader social context.
