- Pro Tip The "Gold Window" for calls is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Vietnamese business culture is energetic and relationship-driven; deals are often sealing during meals. Small gifts or gestures of respect are common in-person, but for virtual calls, maintain a warm, polite, and enthusiastic tone.
London Business Pulse
