Bogota Business Pulse

- 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.
Shanghai Business Pulse
- Culture Highly competitive and fast-paced. Business is often conducted with a mix of modern efficiency and traditional "Guanxi" (relationships).
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (Nap time is common).
- Pro Tip Respect the 12-1 PM lunch and rest window; lights are often dimmed in offices for naps. The best time to call is between 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Avoid calling during major public holidays like Golden Week or Lunar New Year, as business comes to a complete halt.
