This year's sessions will focus on the topic of How can federations support innovative cooperative startups?. The aim is to explore the financial and non-financial support tools that federations have implemented to develop new cooperatives, and to examine the concept of innovation and its various meanings.
Session 3 (Friday, 21 November, 10h-12h CET): Understanding and enabling innovation. This session explores what innovation means in the context of worker and social cooperatives, and how federations can actively support it.
Each session, of two hours, will feature presentations by invited speakers, followed by a discussion.
Who can join? Anyone who is an expert on the topic, has a strong interest in it, or wishes to find out more. While the primary target audience for the MLS is federations, cooperatives are also welcome to participate.
