Synchronization Context

Syncing between Dubai and Rio de Janeiro is challenging due to the 7 hours offset. Teams should prioritize asynchronous communication or specific 'handover' windows.

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.

Rio de Janeiro Business Pulse

Culture Relaxed but hardworking. Creative and media industries are prominent.
Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
Pro Tip Best call times are 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. "Cariocas" (Rio locals) value an informal and friendly start to meetings. Always spend a few minutes on social pleasantries. Avoid scheduling anything for Friday afternoon as the city begins its weekend transition early.
