The most recommended time is "9:00-11:00"
9:00-11:00 is considered the most ideal time for business meetings in Egypt. This is the time when many companies have just started their operations, and employees are most focused and motivated. Since important topics can be tackled with fresh minds in the morning, information sharing and decision-making tend to proceed efficiently. In Egypt, the temperature tends to rise in the afternoon, and depending on the season, it can be hard to concentrate, so holding meetings in the relatively cool morning hours will keep participants comfortable. In addition, Egyptian culture tends to value evenings with family, so late meetings tend to be avoided. Therefore, 9:00-11:00 is the best time to maximize business productivity and ensure that all participants are able to approach the meeting with a positive attitude.
