Calgary Business Pulse

  • Culture Entrepreneurial, professional, and influenced by the energy and tech sectors.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Calgary is a practical, results-oriented city with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. Mountain Time is great for North American syncs. A professional but friendly and "no-nonsense" approach is the most effective here.

Shanghai Business Pulse

  • Culture Highly competitive and fast-paced. Business is often conducted with a mix of modern efficiency and traditional "Guanxi" (relationships).
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (Nap time is common).
  • Pro Tip Respect the 12-1 PM lunch and rest window; lights are often dimmed in offices for naps. The best time to call is between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Avoid calling during major public holidays like Golden Week or Lunar New Year, as business comes to a complete halt.
