Dubai Business Pulse

  • Culture International and multicultural. Sunday is a standard working day, while Friday is often a half-day or holiday.
  • Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The traditional UAE work week is Monday to Friday, but many local businesses and government entities may have shorter hours on Fridays (ending around 12:00 PM). Sunday is no longer a weekend for most, but always verify your contact's specific schedule as multicultural teams vary.

Edinburgh Business Pulse

  • Culture Professional, historic, and relationship-driven. A major hub for finance and education.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM. Scottish business culture values personal rapport and integrity. Take a few minutes for polite greetings before the agenda. Edinburgh is a major financial center; expect high standards of professionalism and clear, honest communication.
