photo-2During the Global Coworking Week Betacowork launched its YouTube channel. We interviewed some of our members and guests to learn what they get out of coworking.
Coworking isn’t only about renting a desk and having a good Internet connection. Like coworkers said, it’s all about being part of a community, sharing ideas and receiving feedback about your work, someone called that “passive networking”. Food is an added value, we know that conversations aroused around the table or with a cup of coffee are always the best. Betacowork‘s goal is to help you to meet all the people who are working around you and create a synergy that makes you work better.
Looking at the interviews we made last week, it shows very clearly that Betacowork is a melting pot of different jobs, there are translators, copy writers, entrepreneurs, developers, visual facilitators and a lot more professionals to discover.
Here a short summary of the brave coworkers who decided to be interviewed and their skills.

  • Ane San Miguel: graphic designer, facilitator, host, networker, ideas developer, music performer, visual recording.
  • Jennifer Palumbo: project manager, moderator/facilitator in communication and education projects; running workshops on pasta-making.
