The audience (about 200 or so, I think) was mostly comprised of HR folks from large companies. A couple of interesting take aways: 1. 53% of the attendees were not familar with coworking - we did a webinar poll asking. Generally speaking these types of polls understate the results of a question like this, so my guess is closer to 2/3rds aren't familar. I saw this as a positive. It means quite a few in corporate HR are aware of coworking. 2. There was a ton of interest in the topic and based on the questions the major coworking concerns this audience has are data security, general risks/problems associated with a lack of privacy, and the potential loss of confidential information. No major surprises here. All in all the group seemed open to the idea of corporate employees using coworking spaces, they're just very concerned about these issues. Of course, it's hard to judge what a webinar audience is thinking - but that's what it seemed like.
