I always knew my work would be closely connected with communities.
I founded a coworking office named LOFFICE with my sister
in the former printing house of the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music in 2009.
We now have four offices in Budapest
and one in Vienna called LOFFICE WIEN.
A programmer at Google first came up with this concept
for office spaces and opened the first coworking office in 2006.
Today, there are 2500 offices based on his idea around the world.
We provide young people with adaptable office spaces and workstations
that can be used and rented flexibly, even by the hour.
We targeted startups, young entrepreneurs
and open-minded opinion makers as our primary customers.
Besides our community offices pioneering the coworking model in Hungary,
we work as patrons of the arts and have mentor programs as well.
This brought us the Young Entrepreneur of the Year award,
while our environmentally friendly ways won us the Green Office of the Year award.
I had been working as a lawyer before.
I was always interested in how communities could be brought together in various ways,
so I was mainly occupied with media law.
I was already building communities at the university.
I organized debate clubs and different events for various groups.
I still use law actively in my work,
because our coworking office concept is completely new in the country,
so creating the legal background and framework
needs permanent attention and continuous work on contracts.
Recognizing great opportunities.
Open-mindedness towards people and novel ideas.
Thinking along the lines of important values.
I studied at ELTE, of course!
ELTE is worth it.
ELTE and its talents were sponsored by OTP.
