Description

'This list is about tech worker cooperatives: how to start them, how to sustain them, and how we can help each other. On the list are ~100 people from 40+ organizations: founders and workers at existing tech worker coops, people working on starting a coop or formalizing an existing group, and people who are just interested in the worker coop model for tech work. Some of the people and organizations on this list sometimes refer to each other very informally as the Network of American Tech Worker Cooperatives (NATWC). But folks outside of the Americas are certainly welcome too!

In March 2009, a bunch of us wrote A Technology Freelancer's Guide To Starting a Worker Cooperative which gives some useful background on what we mean by "tech worker coop" and why we think they're great." (http://npogroups.org/lists/info/tech-coop)
