Athens Business Pulse

  • Culture Sociable and relationship-heavy. Business often involves lively discussion.
  • Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The best window for calls is 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM. Avoid calling between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM (the "siesta" or lunch period). Greeks value personal rapport and hospitality; business deals are often sealed over long meals or social gatherings. Be prepared for a warm and expressive communication style.

Brussels Business Pulse

  • Culture International and bureaucratic due to EU presence. Values compromise and multilingualism.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Business here is often international; ensure you know which linguistic community (French/Dutch) your contact belongs to, or use English as the professional bridge. Expect a focus on protocol and consensus.
