gener8tor and Nehemiah, with support from Madison Cooperative Development Coalition, are running a Worker Owned Cooperative Startup Accelerator Spring 2022!

The free program provides an opportunity for Madison startups, entrepreneurs and justice involved individuals to explore the worker owned cooperative model, and for existing cooperatives to identify best practices for scaling and building capacity.

The Kickoff and Panel Discussion opens the conversation and is open to the public, including anyone interested in learning more about or contributing their experiences in worker cooperatives. The program kicks off virtually on Zoom on Wednesday, May 18th from 4:30-6:00 CT with a panel discussion led by entrepreneurs sharing joys and challenges of building and maintaining a co-op in Madison.

We will then host a series of four webinars in May and June focused on co-op basics, legal considerations and building a team.

Panelists:
Georgia Allen – Soaring Independent Cooperative
Aída Inuca, Matilde Cachiguango, Jennifer Valencia, Maricela Martinez, Rosalba Montoya – Roots4Change
