A co-op is a member-controlled and member-owned business that operates for the benefit of its members. They exist in every industry and range in size from five owners to thousands. A true form of economic democracy, the co-op model provides an innovative and equitable way for individuals and communities to come together to start a new business or adapt an existing business into an employee/member-owned enterprise.
In this free virtual workshop, the Cooperative Catalyst of New Mexico is partnering with the Taos Hive to introduce the cooperative model to New Mexico entrepreneurs. In this ninety-minute webinar, we will cover the basics of cooperatives - what they are, how they are different, how to form one, and what additional resources are available to get started on your co-op journey.
