Chengdu Business Pulse
- Culture Known for a better work-life balance than the coast. "Lively and relaxed".
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM. Chengdu business is famous for being done over local tea or spicy Sichuan food; if on a video call, keep the atmosphere warm and friendly. Personal rapport is more important here than in the high-pressure coastal cities like Shenzhen.
Madrid Business Pulse
- Culture Values networking and personal relationships. The work day often ends later than in Northern Europe.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Never call during the 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM lunch window. The best times are 11:00 AM - 1:30 PM or 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM. Spanish business culture is highly relational; expect to spend time on personal introductions. Note that the city significantly slows down during the month of August.
