@sambutlerUS Sure, I'm also CEST, in the evening is more relaxed for me. But I honestly have no idea about the legal stuff around such projects, I know it's possible, but really never done anything in that area. But I really feel like there are a lot of bright people, that are ready to do things differently :)
@gr3yg00 For sure! I have decent experience there. It can be as simple as a private company, which is internally structured so that all workers for the company have a vote in the operations (one member, one vote) and a share in the dividends. Then different countries also have legal entities types for coops, specifically, which is a bit newer territory. For example, Europe has a kind of entity which is a cross-border legal cooperative (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Societas_cooperativa_Europaea) — it makes certain operations implicit, which I think a group of people could also just encode into the charter and codes of a private company. (e.g. not sure about the benefits of coop legal entities, compared to private companies structured as cooperative entities.). It seems a number of active cooperatives are actually limited private companies structured as cooperatives, because that gives them greater flexibility in being cooperatives ... ironically. An example of that here:
