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).

Riyadh Business Pulse
- Culture Formal and traditional. Business hours are influenced by prayer times.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The work week is Sunday to Thursday. Call between 10:00 AM and 1:30 PM. Avoid calling during the five daily prayer times (Salat). Business is highly relational and hierarchical; always address senior decision-makers with appropriate respect and titles.
