Lyon Business Pulse
- Culture Traditional but innovative. Values both industrial heritage and world-class gastronomy.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Never call between 12:30 PM and 2:00 PM; the lunch break is strictly for dining and networking. Tuesday and Thursday mornings are typically the best for reaching senior leaders. Business culture is formal and values long-term personal trust.
Nagoya Business Pulse
- Culture The heart of Japan's manufacturing (Toyota). Values precision and long-term stability.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Nagoya is the precision engineering capital; be prepared for very detailed, technical discussions. Punctuality is non-negotiable. Building a long-term, stable relationship is more important than achieving quick, one-off sales.
