Medellin Business Pulse
- Culture Entrepreneurial, warm, and rapidly transforming into a tech hub.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. "Paisas" (Medellin locals) are known for being exceptionally friendly and polite. Personal rapport is vital; always include a warm greeting and inquiry before diving into business. Early morning meetings (8 AM) are quite common.
Seoul Business Pulse
- Culture Extremely hardworking and hierarchical. "Pali-pali" (hurry-hurry) culture drives rapid growth.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. South Koreans value speed ("Pali-pali") and expect rapid responses. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour strictly. Ensure you follow hierarchical protocols if senior leaders are present, and never arrive (digitally or in-person) late for a call.
