London Business Pulse

  • Culture London business culture is generally formal but collaborative. "Flexi-Fridays" are common in the summer.
  • Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Avoid calling after 4:30 PM on Fridays as many offices wind down early for the weekend. Mid-week (Tuesday to Thursday) between 10 AM and 4 PM is the "Golden Window" for reaching decision-makers. Always start with a brief polite inquiry about their day before diving into business.

Vientiane Business Pulse

  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
