During a few busy hours, the participants had time to discuss all the nuances related to the use of water space and coastal territories for private initiatives, found out how much it actually costs to rent 200 square meters of water area (spoiler: very cheap), discussed why the city on the water still does not have a map that would indicate the available space for construction and lease near waterways, learned what difficulties in the field of legislation entrepreneurs and private owners who are interested in the development of coastal territories usually face, and tried to understand why government agencies often refuse to allow citizens to build houses on water.

The second section was devoted to presentations of case studies by speakers from the Nordic countries. Anne Beate Hovind (Bjorvika Utvikling, Norway) told about her current project "Future Library", implemented jointly with artist Kathy Paterson. The works selected for the project will be printed on paper created from trees that are currently growing in a special area in the Norwegian forest. The trees will be cut down in 2114 (100 years after the project started), and the works will be stored in a specially designed section of the Oslo public library until the end of the project. The second speaker —Jesper Berseus (STPLN project, Sweden) — told about the SPLIN space that has emerged on the site of former shipyards, its history and the difficulties that a creative entrepreneur can face. Jesper also spoke about the funding mechanisms for STPLN and the role of the state in this process.
