Hanoi Business Pulse
- Culture Formal, hierarchical, and relationship-driven. Government presence is strong.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Business in the capital is more formal and hierarchical than in the south. Relationships with authority and government are often important. Trust must be built through multiple polite interactions and formal introductions.
Zurich Business Pulse
- Culture Precise, formal, and highly efficient. Values quality and punctuality above all.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Punctuality in Switzerland is non-negotiable; being even one minute late is considered a serious lack of professionalism. Keep your discussion focused, data-driven, and highly organized. Avoid calling during the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
