Ho Chi Minh City Business Pulse

  • Culture Fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and very hardworking.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • 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.

Paris Business Pulse

  • Culture Values work-life balance and high-quality debate. Business lunches can be longer than in NYC or London.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Never call between 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM; this "sacred" lunch window is for refueling and relationship building. Tuesday and Thursday mornings are typically the most productive for reaching senior management. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
