There aren´t much visible similarities among coworkers except that most seem to have a Mac in front and headphones on their ears. I have used the services of a few co-working spaces in Berlin and San Francisco, but insights about the other people that were sharing the space were still to be discovered - their skills, their background, their ideals. I had quite some talks with Katy, the head of Front Office at betahaus, who knew all of betahaus coworkers, and tried to understand what could they benefit from. Then I've created a survey for them to fill in to express their wishes and I had also the invaluable guidance of Elizaveta, the director of the festival, who had the experience and creative insight to steer me in the right direction. 

This is a very hard question because I feel very close to each of the workshops and talks that I brought on the lineup. On the day of the festival I would have loved to be just a regular visitor and be able to take part in all of them. In the end, I think the variety is what´s important so participants would have had a chance to find what they were looking for and I hope they did.
