Singapore is 7 hours ahead of Lisbon, leaving about 3 hours of daily overlap — enough for most meetings if you don't leave them too late in the day. Finally, Lisbon observes daylight saving and Singapore doesn't, so this window shifts by an hour for part of the year — recheck it each spring and autumn.
