A very special coworking

By: Fanny Marcoux
  • Summary

  • What sets your coworking space apart?


    Each one is different. They all have their own awesomeness, their own little something.


    Each month, I interview one coworking manager from somewhere across the world for 30 min. They tell us what their something special is.


    Hi, I’m Fanny!


    I’m your host and passionate about coworking, remote working, nomading, freelancing, and marketing. Many -ing in there.


    During the day, I help ecommerce managers migrate to Google Analytics 4 and optimize their webshop for conversions.
