There are a range of things we could talk about this week as noted at Madespace.


We should focus on the items needing most urgent decisions, or with long lead times. Perhaps some of:

  • Priorities: what’s important first? chairs, internet, kit??
  • Community engagement & Culture (this intersects with Rules - eg is alcohol allowed or not) It's important because it will start to crystallise quite quickly, and once a culture is set it will be tough to change
  • Where are we on the shiny / less shiny spectrum? (this affects how potential sponsors might view the space, as well as people’s attitudes to the space, whether they feel involved/responsible and so on)
  • Donations: what do we take? What do we not take?
  • What have we forgotten? What else should we be talking about?
  • Makespace Use Cases to inform the use of space
    • What uses can be made of Makespace that aren't represented by current founder community
    • How can the space be arranged to be useful/flexible for these groups
    • When to start reaching out to groups currently not represented
    • What furniture should be placed where, what we are missing and could do with **

Proposed agenda:

1. Introductions

2. Discussion of which topics (as above) should be priorities

3. Selection of 1-2 topics for the evening

4. Working...

5. Wrap up and sharing results

6. Planning next meeting
