Milan Business Pulse
- Culture The fashion and finance capital of Italy. Sophisticated, fast-paced, and highly professional.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM for the most productive discussions. Milanese business culture is more fast-paced and direct than in Rome, but personal rapport is still vital. Punctuality and professional presentation are highly valued in this stylish global hub.
Osaka Business Pulse
- Culture Slightly more pragmatic and direct than Tokyo. Known for a entrepreneurial spirit and "Kuidaore" (eat until you drop).
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM. Osakans are known for being slightly more informal and direct than people in Tokyo, but standard Japanese business etiquette (punctuality, politeness) still applies strictly. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour.
