Tokyo Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi KΕkan" (business card exchange) are central.
- Lunch Break Strictly 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The most effective window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs. Late afternoon calls (4 PM - 5:30 PM) are also acceptable, but ensure you follow formal protocols and hierarchy if multiple stakeholders are on the line.
Valencia Business Pulse
- Culture Dynamic, relationship-based, and influenced by its port and burgeoning tech scene.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Avoid calling during the 2:00-4:00 PM lunch period strictly. Best times are 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM. Valencians value personal rapport and a warm, engaged tone. Business is increasingly modern and tech-focused, but traditional relational values remain very important.
