If you look around the tech sector, it would be easy to think that this was the only model of generating wealth. And generating wealth for whom? A Co-operative is a business that exists for the benefit of its members (as opposed to its shareholders), and is built around a set of co-operative principles. As I’ve found with our own co-op, our shared ownership affords us a different level of care towards each other – and I’ve found it totally refreshing.
This thought was sparked by an excellent keynote at the Co-op Education Conference by Emer Coleman of Co-op Digital.
