- Pro Tip Best reached between 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Colombians are exceptionally polite and formal ("Usted" is common). Punctuality is increasingly important in big cities like Bogota. Always start with a friendly inquiry about their wellbeing and family before the agenda.
Kolkata Business Pulse
- Culture Intellectual and heritage-focused. Business often involves longer discussions and consensus.
- Lunch Break 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM.
