Hey everyone, When we were developing the business plan for our space two years ago, a prospective member asked us if we had considered setting Cowork Niagara up as a co-operative. We didn’t know what that was, so we checked it out.
It was the best thing that we could have done. We’re the only co-operative coworking space in english-speaking Canada (there’s one other in Quebec). I’m now convinced that if more spaces use this model it will help create stronger, more resilient coworking communities. I’m sharing this in the hopes that it piques your collective curiosity. I wrote a post about it on our newly-launched blog. If any of you have any questions about this, feel free to ask. http://cowork/blog/2016/02/10/why-co-operatives-and-coworking-go-hand-in-hand/ -------------------------------------------- Trevor Twining Cowork Niagara http://coworkniagara.com <http://coworkniagara.com/> Home of Niagara’s independent workforce twitter: @coworkniagara, @trevortwining -- Visit this forum on the web at http://discuss.coworking.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
