Discussion
Hi (as I live in London I can not come but...) here are my two cents about www.traidmark.org which is a business structure that is like a coop but where 100% (or as much as possible) NET profit is donated to 'innovative, efficient, (probably charitable) productions' that benefit humanity instead of shareholders or coop members. the other benefits are explained on the web page. Would love to work with anyone interested in developing new business structures too:)
