Bucharest Business Pulse
- Culture Energetic, polyglot, and tech-focused. Rapidly growing as a European service hub.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Romanians are generally very multilingual (English is the standard for tech) and professional. Business culture values personal rapport; a warm but professional tone is the most effective for long-term collaboration.
Osaka Business Pulse
- Culture Slightly more pragmatic and direct than Tokyo. Known for a entrepreneurial spirit and "Kuidaore" (eat until you drop).
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM. Osakans are known for being slightly more informal and direct than people in Tokyo, but standard Japanese business etiquette (punctuality, politeness) still applies strictly. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
