Synchronization Context

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.

- Culture Professional, industrial, and closely linked to Tokyo. Values long-term corporate stability.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. As Japan's largest port, business is practical and trade-oriented. Standard Japanese etiquette (punctuality, politeness, formal protocol) is strictly followed. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs.
