Since an emerging interest in ownership among tech entrepreneurs in 2014 and co-organizing the first “” conference with Trebor Scholz at the New School in 2015, MEDLab director Nathan Schneider has been active in organizing and documenting this growing movement aiming to build an ecosystem for cooperative business in the online economy.
