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.

Toronto Business Pulse

  • Culture Multicultural, polite, and professional. Similar to NYC but generally more reserved.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Canadians value punctuality and a polite, reserved professional tone. It is similar to NYC but with slightly more emphasis on consensus and less on aggressive directness. Avoid calling after 4:30 PM when the work day is concluding.
