Brasilia Business Pulse
- Culture Formal, political, and influenced by government and administrative cycles.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. As the capital, business is often formal and hierarchical. Political and professional titles are respected. Punctuality in corporate/government settings is expected. Avoid scheduling anything for Friday afternoon as many people travel then.
Kinshasa Business Pulse
- Culture Developing and informal but with a growing corporate sector. Relationships are key.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM for the best response. French is the primary business language; ensure you have a translator or are fluent for technical discussions. Personal relationships and face-to-face (or video) interactions are highly valued over cold emails.
