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.
Lisbon Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-based and relaxed. Business often starts with a coffee.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:30 AM and 12:30 PM or 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Portuguese business culture is highly relational; do not dive straight into the agenda. Spend time on personal greetings and building trust. Punctuality is valued in professional settings but can be slightly fluid.
