Guangzhou Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.
Stockholm Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-driven and egalitarian. Values sustainability and innovation.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Swedes value consensus and "Lagom" (just the right amount); avoid being overly boastful or pushy. Hierarchy is flat, and decision-making involves everyone. Do not schedule meetings over "Fika" (the essential coffee and cake break).
