[OKFN-EN] OPEN 2018 - Platform Co-ops conference in London in July

[Oliver Sylvester-Bradley]

Hi All,

I thought you might be interested in this conference in London in July: https://2018.open.coop/ 

The platform cooperative economy is evolving as a viable alternative to the centralised, profit-hungry, extractive business model which dominates the web today.

By shifting the focus toward fundamentally fairer forms of ownership and governance, and rewarding their communities instead of venture capitalists, platform cooperatives provide a template for a new type of organisation – forming the building blocks for a more equitable economy.

There's a packed programme developing... https://2018.open.coop/programme/

Hope this is useful to someone!

best
Oli
