Kuwait City Business Pulse

Culture Relational, formal, and influenced by energy and traditional business networks.
Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 12:30 PM. Business culture is highly relational; trust and personal referrals are essential. The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Punctuality is appreciated, but meetings often include social pleasantries. Avoid daily prayer times.

Shanghai Business Pulse

Culture Highly competitive and fast-paced. Business is often conducted with a mix of modern efficiency and traditional "Guanxi" (relationships).
Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (Nap time is common).
Pro Tip Respect the 12-1 PM lunch and rest window; lights are often dimmed in offices for naps. The best time to call is between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Avoid calling during major public holidays like Golden Week or Lunar New Year, as business comes to a complete halt.
