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.

New York City Business Pulse

  • Culture Fast-paced and direct. Punctuality is highly valued, and meetings often get straight to business.
  • Lunch Break Often "on-the-go" between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Mornings (9:30 AM - 11:30 AM) are best for high-energy discussions. After 4:00 PM EST, most professionals are wrapping up or in "commute mode," making it a poor time for complex topics. Keep your pitch concise—New Yorkers value their time and appreciate directness over lengthy pleasantries.
