Hello everyone, my name is Kofoworola Awojobi. I hope we’re all staying safe. With a background in medicine (in Lagos, Nigeria), I began solving for ways my patients could more readily bear costly medical bills. And, soon enough I invented Uconomy: a user-modulated, best bargains economy.
My goal is for Uconomy to become a UK co-op technology company and to this end I’d like to ask for your guidance here. Becoming a CoTech member eventually, would be the natural next step - and a joy.
I can’t wait to share Uconomy’s solutions - read the Proof of Concept here - and I also hope to collaborate with as many folks here, as are willing.
Thanks @chris. I dived into the resource Simply Legal you suggested - indeed very useful and detailed. I already imagine the specific form our intended co-op will look like. A multi-stakeholder co-operative is, for example, the type of co-op that best suits our offering.
What specific next steps do we take in order to attain UK incorporation?
I only have experience of the Somerset ones, picking the set you like best and contacting the organisation who wrote them for advice and assistance would be my suggestion.
Hello @surgeon, as @chris suggested there are ready available multistakeholder model rules available. You could also look into taking advice from the Hive, probably Pathway 1.
This Mondragon&Platform Coooperativism Consortium initiative could also turn out helpful.
Yes the Hive. Pathway 1 would be the way to go (new start-up coop). I linked-up to the Hive through the Simply Legal site @chris pointed. Thanks so very much @SzczepanOfAnimorph. You guys are super-supportive
