This week, we talk about the various challenges and opportunities to starting a cooperative. We get into how cooperatives are organized, some history on the Mondragon corporation and its spin-offs, receive practical insight into starting a cooperative, and touch on 3d printing and zero marginal cost production along the way. Patrick Conlon is the director of development with the non profit WORCS (Worker Ownership Resources & Cooperative Services).
