Copenhagen Business Pulse
- Culture Flat hierarchy and very direct. Values design, green energy, and "Hygge".
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Danes are famously direct and value their family time; avoid calling after 4:30 PM. The culture is informal and egalitarian; do not worry about titles, but do worry about technical competence and honesty.
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.
