Synchronization Context

A 5 hours gap allows for a manageable shared window, typically in the morning or late afternoon. It requires some scheduling but supports daily synchronization.

Istanbul Business Pulse

  • Culture A bridge between East and West. Business is personal, and hospitality (tea/coffee) is a prerequisite.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Aim for calls between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Turkish business culture is highly relational; starting with "Nasılsınız?" (How are you?) and building rapport is essential. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.

Taipei Business Pulse

  • Culture High-tech and efficient. Values both modern innovation and traditional professional respect.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Taipei is a major global tech hub; expect high professional standards and efficiency. Hierarchy is respected, but the culture is increasingly globalized. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1:30 PM lunch and rest window.
