Hong Kong Business Pulse

Culture Fast-paced, efficient, and highly international. Values both Western efficiency and Eastern heritage.
Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
Pro Tip The best time for calls is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM or 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Avoid the 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM lunch hour. Business is fast and professional; be prepared with your data and ready to make decisions. Like Singapore, punctuality and professional titles are highly respected.

London Business Pulse

Culture London business culture is generally formal but collaborative. "Flexi-Fridays" are common in the summer.
Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
Pro Tip Avoid calling after 4:30 PM on Fridays as many offices wind down early for the weekend. Mid-week (Tuesday to Thursday) between 10 AM and 4 PM is the "Golden Window" for reaching decision-makers. Always start with a brief polite inquiry about their day before diving into business.
