Bogota Business Pulse

  • Culture Formal and polite. Small talk and personal connection are expected.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • 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.

San Francisco Business Pulse

  • Culture Innovation-focused and casual. Values disruption, speed, and technical excellence.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Expect a casual, tech-first vibe—informal language and dress are the norm. However, technical competence and speed are non-negotiable. Many in the Bay Area work non-traditional hours, but standard business times remain the safest bet.
