The most recommended time is "9:00-11:00"
When setting up a meeting in Austria, the most recommended time is "9:00-11:00". This time period is just after the start of work for most companies, when many employees have arrived at the workplace and have not yet fully engaged in their work. Therefore, there is relatively more room in the schedule, making it easy to schedule meetings.
In addition, the brain is at its best in the morning and it is easier to maintain concentration, so you can expect constructive discussions. In fact, the culture of "making effective use of morning time" is deeply rooted throughout Europe, and early meetings tend to be well received.
Furthermore, lunchtime is relatively early in Austria, so after 11:00, the rush before lunch begins. In that sense, 9:00 to 11:00 is the "golden time" for the most calm discussions. If you want to have important negotiations or exchange opinions, we recommend choosing this time.
