Melbourne Business Pulse

  • Culture Professional but relaxed. Known for a strong coffee culture and sports-related networking.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The best time for calls is 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Australians are generally informal but professional; starting with "How's it going?" is standard. Melbourne is the coffee capital; if you're on a video call, don't be surprised if your contact is in a café.

Rome Business Pulse

  • Culture Formal but passionate. Relationships are built over coffee and long discussions.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Call between 10:30 AM and 12:30 PM or 4:00 PM and 5:30 PM. Avoid the 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM lunch break. Italians value relationship building ("La Bella Figura"); always maintain a professional but warm and engaged tone. Business slows down significantly during the "Ferragosto" period in August.
