Some days it's just two of us. The best days have six. We stop at 10, so everyone can still hear each other at lunch.
No application form. Anyone can come once. If someone pitches, flirts or talks through focus blocks, we don't invite them back.
We meet in coworking spaces in Amsterdam. Your invite has the address.
Some of our partners:
2 days a month
Founder days
On these days only founders sit at the table. With or without revenue, early or late stage, as long as it's not a side project. Part of the normal membership.
About founder daysComing soonPrivate by defaultOpen to dating?
No flirting at sessions. Afterwards you can privately mark someone you’d like to see again. If they marked you too, you both get an invite for a coffee, on us. If not, nobody ever finds out.
How dating worksPick a day and put it in your calendar.
All times are Amsterdam time. Your first day is from €15, paid on Luma. Dark dates are founder days.

Did 3 rounds of pomodoro last Sunday.
Got deep work done, made two new friends, and had coffee with an old one.
Been doing pomodoro ever since.
Living life in 25 min increments is nice.
Thanks to Paul Kozlov for organizing and thanks to Lena Shakurova and Yury Sukhoverkhov for the healthy peer pressure 🤓

Pasha introduces people clean and sharp, so you instantly get this is your kind of person. That alone isn't enough in our goldfish-attention world — but Pasha's got that covered too. His coworks, hangouts, and dinners keep bumping you into the same crowd, over and over, like it's no big deal. I found a business partner and a couple of leads out of the transactional side of it. What actually stuck was feeling like I've got my people in his warm Limen.

All day today I keep walking around thinking what a cool project this is! Huge thanks for yesterday's get-together — it was great!
Super productive and super social, and somehow the day went by so easily and happily. With structure, and with time to get some "fresh air" between the pomodoros.
Of course you don't pick the people on purpose, but such great people came together!
Anyway, thank you so much!

I've been regularly joining Pasha's co-workings for a couple of months now and that's always one of my favourite days a week. I love that I meet new interesting people (and Pasha always has most interesting people coming!) and I like the structure of setting a goal and working on pomodoro, helps me stay focused and productively while always enjoying togetherness and spending time with nice people. If you never tried coworkings before, highly recommend!
Lena ShakurovaFounder @ ParsLabs | AI AdvisorI am surprised how I found these sessions both productive (being very focused during the pomodoro timer on) and joyful (there was always a lot of laughter).

I have joined already a few coworking sessions organised by Pasha. I am surprised how I found these sessions both productive (being very focused during the pomodoro timer on) and joyful (there was always a lot of laughter). It was nice meeting new people too. And because of some reasons beyond my comprehension, it was very easy going, and rather than giving a formal handshake to a new person, I mostly embraced them with a hug. So the vibe is very homy/friendly rather than formal. Will continue joining.

Joined a focused coworking session by Limen today for the first time - it was a great experience!
First of all - got more things done than I would at home (laundry is always there for you, you know 🫠).
Nice bonus - met great people and finally discovered the new home of Localie Hub Amsterdam.
Great combo! 🤝
I've known Paul Kozlov for about 15 years and he has a superpower - great people gather around him in a very natural way.
If you're working from home on Mondays/Fridays - I highly recommend to try!

Who runs it
I'm Pavel, the facilitator. I open the room, keep the time, and at check-in I suggest who you should meet. I have designed formats for meeting people since 2018. I co-founded Random Coffee, grew it to $200K ARR and 10k meetings a week, made it profitable and sold my stake. Then I moved to a new country to build again.

Questions
Do I have to talk?
One sentence when you arrive, one when you leave. The rest is up to you.
How soon will I know people here?
Research says about 50 hours together for a casual friendship. A Limen day has at least 2 hours of breaks and lunch. Come every Monday and Friday and you get there in 12 weeks or less, without giving up an evening. From your first check-in, the facilitator may suggest people you should meet.
Is this a networking event?
Nobody pitches. You work, and you talk in the breaks. If someone from earlier days can help with your work, the facilitator suggests you meet.
Do I have to be a founder?
No. Two days a month are for founders only. All other days are open to everyone.
How many people come?
From 2 to 10. Ideally 6 at one table.
Where is it?
Coworking spaces in Amsterdam. The exact place is in your invite.
Can I take calls?
Try not to plan many calls on a focus day. If something comes up, every venue has a phone booth or a quiet place to talk. One strict rule: nobody talks at the table during focus blocks.
What do I need?
A laptop, headphones, and one task you have been putting off.
What does it cost?
First day from €15, paid on Luma when you register. Then €79 excl. VAT (€95.59 incl. 21% VAT) a month, every session included.
What if I am late?
Come at the start of any hour and check in then.
Spend one Monday or Friday with us.
