Houston Business Pulse
- Culture Focused on energy, medical, and aerospace. Professional and direct.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Houston is a practical, results-oriented city. The Central Time Zone is ideal for North American coordination. While professional, the culture has a touch of "Southern hospitality," so a friendly opening is always appropriate.
Kaohsiung Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial, pragmatic, and more relaxed than Taipei. A major port and manufacturing hub.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Kaohsiung business is practical and trade-oriented. While hierarchy is respected, the vibe can be slightly more informal than in Taipei. Avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch and rest window strictly for all professional calls.
