Cairo Business Pulse
- Culture Traditional and relationship-heavy. Appointments are necessary but often fluid in timing.
- Lunch Break 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Friday and Saturday are the weekend. Call between 11:00 AM and 2:30 PM. During Ramadan, business hours shift significantly (usually starting later and ending mid-afternoon); check local times carefully during this period.
New York City Business Pulse
- Culture Fast-paced and direct. Punctuality is highly valued, and meetings often get straight to business.
- Lunch Break Often "on-the-go" between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Mornings (9:30 AM - 11:30 AM) are best for high-energy discussions. After 4:00 PM EST, most professionals are wrapping up or in "commute mode," making it a poor time for complex topics. Keep your pitch concise—New Yorkers value their time and appreciate directness over lengthy pleasantries.
