Birmingham Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial, professional, and increasingly diverse. A major center for manufacturing and services.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Business is professional and pragmatic. As a major UK hub, it has high standards for efficiency. Punctuality is expected, and a polite, collaborative tone is standard for building successful partnerships.
Fukuoka Business Pulse
- Culture Energetic, entrepreneurial, and the gateway to Asia. Values innovation.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Fukuoka has a strong start-up culture and is slightly more informal than Tokyo, but standard Japanese etiquette (punctuality, politeness) still applies strictly. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour for all professional inquiries.
