Platform Coops

✨ Join us for our Platform Coops Open Research Forum on December 8, 5-7pm CET online ✨
This gathering is calling , and who are interested to ask questions around platform cooperativism and learn from practical insights.

Over the past years, our Platform Coops team has received growing interest from people in academia. All of them are investigating cooperative ownership, democratic governance and the future of digital economies. While we cannot respond individually to every request, we see a strong need for shared exchange and collaboration.
With this open research call, we bring together scholars, students, and practitioners who study or document platform cooperativism, digital commons, and cooperative innovation.

Together we’ll discuss current research questions, identify emerging trends, and connect peers working on similar topics across countries and disciplines.
This event is co-organised and hosted by Ela Kagel, Andreas Arnold, Claudia Henke, Melike N. Kaplan and Anannya Bhowmik.
