Lisbon Business Pulse

  • Culture Relationship-based and relaxed. Business often starts with a coffee.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best reached between 10:30 AM and 12:30 PM or 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Portuguese business culture is highly relational; do not dive straight into the agenda. Spend time on personal greetings and building trust. Punctuality is valued in professional settings but can be slightly fluid.

Portland Business Pulse

  • Culture Creative, informal, and values sustainability and technical excellence.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Expect a very casual professional environment (informal dress is the norm). Punctuality is still important, but the vibe is collaborative and egalitarian. Many in Portland value their work-life balance, so avoid late evening calls.
