Kinshasa Business Pulse

Culture Developing and informal but with a growing corporate sector. Relationships are key.
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
Pro Tip Call between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM for the best response. French is the primary business language; ensure you have a translator or are fluent for technical discussions. Personal relationships and face-to-face (or video) interactions are highly valued over cold emails.

San Diego Business Pulse

Culture Professional, casual, and focused on biotech and innovation.
Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Like much of the US West Coast, the culture is casual-professional. Biotech and defense are major industries; expect technical competence to be highly valued. Punctuality is respected, even in a more relaxed atmosphere.
