In this sentence, בסוף הפגישה means at the end of the meeting.
This is a very common Hebrew pattern:
- בתחילת השיעור = at the beginning of the lesson
- באמצע היום = in the middle of the day
- בסוף הסרט = at the end of the movie
Hebrew usually prefers the construct chain for this kind of phrase.
So instead of saying the end of the meeting with a separate word for of, Hebrew often says:
- סוף הפגישה
