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.
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.
