Ideas & thoughts from Palomar5 in Berlin
I just arrived back from a mind-blowing week in Berlin at Palomar 5. I wanted to thank everyone at P5 for the amazing days and write down a few thoughts, learnings and ideas from the last 5 days in Berlin. There is much more that would deserve to be told, like stories about mexican-human-mini-golf courses at 4 am, midnight Omelette cooking with Saga or Eddie’s theory of focus vs. broadness on a napkin. Below some of the stuff that inspired me most and ideas that came out of it.

Meet the young entrepreneurs of sweden
