Community, Government, and Corporate Partners

Spur the growth of co-ops in the sector, geography, or population that interests you.

We have a track record of cultivating strong communities of cooperative entrepreneurs and providing them with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to build thriving cooperative businesses. Whether you are just starting to explore your community’s interest in cooperatives, you want to better understand how to promote cooperative startups in your geography, or you are ready to develop a custom program for the population you serve, we have the expertise and experience to partner with you and create lasting impact.

Philanthropy

Invest in a cooperative future and a more resilient and equitable economy.

We’ve got big plans for the future. By 2025 we will be a nationally-recognized organization that entrepreneurs turn to when they want to build values-aligned businesses. We plan to:

• Introduce co-ops to 10,000+ people 

• Partner with entrepreneurs to grow 225+ new co-ops

• Help co-ops find and access over $10m in new capital 

As a registered 501(c)3 charitable organization we are grateful for the support of a generous community of donors committed to the potential of cooperatives and shared prosperity.

Investors

We can help you source high-potential co-ops for your portfolio.

If you want to balance your portfolio with investments in businesses that share, rather than concentrate wealth and prosperity, you’ve come to the right place. We are neither registered investment advisors nor attorneys nor accountants but we know the cooperative landscape inside out and back to front. We have built a thriving community of entrepreneurs and investors working together to build robust, cooperatively-owned businesses and invite you to join us.
