Nairobi Business Pulse

  • Culture Energetic and entrepreneurial. Tech hub of East Africa ("Silicon Savannah").
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 12:30 PM. The tech scene is very vibrant and mobile-first. Personal relationships are vital; take a few minutes for "Small Talk" before jumping into business. Be patient with potential internet stability and have a backup messaging option ready.

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.
