To: <[email protected]> Global Innovation Coop Summit *Back to Businessas usual!* * Global Innovation Coop Summit's first edition.* The first edition of the Global Innovation Coop Summit took place on December 30th, 2020, and was completely digital and free. The 90 minutes live event was designed to be a space dedicated to the leaders and experts of cooperatives from all sectors internationally, to share, discuss, learn and build a more cooperative, inclusive plural economy. The main goal of the Global Innovation Coop Summit was to bring to the global cooperative movement new trends in the areas of innovation, leadership, and technology; thus preparing the cooperative sector for the new challenges that we are facing and will continue to in the coming years. The event's first presenter was *Navi Radjou*, speaker, author, and Innovation & Leadership Advisor, and he brought to the table the theme “Towards a frugal economy”. Drawing on concrete examples from different sectors and regions of the world, *Navi Radjou* identified the crucial changes to be made - in terms of culture, structure, and leadership - which allowed the spectators to understand and fully integrate into the generating “frugal economy” profit while contributing to the “triple regeneration” (individual, social and ecological). After Mr. Radjou's speech, the stage was set for *Nathan Schneider*, author, and professor of media studies at the University of Colorado at Boulder, who presented the idea of a shared agenda for shared ownership. Nathan discussed how we can think beyond old habits and how to develop policies and strategies that will put cooperation at the center of the global economy. The final part of the event was a roundtable coordinated by *Mr. Jean-Louis Bancel*, president of Cooperatives Europe, with Mr. Radjou, Mr. Schneider and 3 other participants: *Samara Araujo*, the Innovation Coordinator in Organization of Brazilian Cooperatives (OCB), Brazil; *Lorenzo Novaro*, the Project coordinator in Cooperatives Europe, Brussels; and* Mr. Eric Brat*, the Director of the Alphonse and Dorimène Desjardins International Institute for Cooperatives, at HEC Montréal. The roundtable supported an important discussion on how the cooperative business model can reinvent a more efficient, agile, socially inclusive, and ecologically beneficial economy. It also included a dialogue on how technology contributes to social innovation and the leaders' visions of the post-COVID-19 new normal for cooperatives and their capacity to innovate. *Global Innovation Coop Summit was viewed by 458 people from 82 different countries.* *We hope to see you in the second digital edition of Global Innovation Coop Summit on the 20nd of April, 2021!* * Obtain more information on how to participate here:* <https://u8415165.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=23rQKKzF86n-2FKlni5fZeUDemfaamoW-2BdCDHmOadzDpfanz-2BjvREP5sFfKd3O2KdbaHOo_DC4y3DdDCeEScwRgaDHqvau1iPGSXF4oBtjmBuj2ICWljZWdzvTeu9U8b6nxg2Z8ACTdO4L4dOC-2BbBKkaNYzAV-2FbdgZwVH-2FRMyVIwIv8bzPkcLuXzoFsv4SpYLHJjbeOBxFTuFLFJYS0tBvQlxOwJ9UgkRiNW3sG4103B2KvNvjlln-2B0Op-2BIIuuDOnNHlBaNnzQPbsoT-2BXcIttIsYFFp8gfsalrIlLLSVZJeOSh5r7ZUoP1FFs3eZO8SKC-2FxPaEJbc-2F4fXf-2FHqbseNrZxgLNfYeEj0VGNET94oPhh8GR8s-2BfUhu9cbbeYKl3lV4Yh9LUog5AFzivpiC3fz7y-2BvyiQYvnHPcpoOERbw9IpMmzTFG8qUEjcqTylagg74iB8qbwEl648YOoOX6ajPl-2BL1ZJbgS7pICKyUD3QleRoWRuZWUyZFF3zjan0qKRy0QQYU-2Bh> Global Innovation Coop Summit Sintra , Lisbon , Unsubscribe <https://u8415165.ct.sendgrid.net/asm/unsubscribe/?user_id=8415165&data=NR7EVsCw9JTDGiITujtRdeVfl5jeRxrQ0HOkSocmLPCBApzrJxuzveENmTbZ0olS6a9Vhej6HTvr9acOtAGiL7wMSJG0cWo2fwrAZwhk6ItrAYrNB2TLzr0JyYJZX-8ZuOvXzxbpanpwhBVwtlNRG0CKo2gNrV3nhTC8H3w45YF_Fh1b-g0zBt-a9HpWpp4bMx1I_V8VN1lWdtLj5Gc_Dwa4ceZZ1AZIsw75Gd5eG2impvWYXvFnRuFfFLU2LfrCAC-SoTHlpb0a5iLCswnip51FA4cmKl9bIkY1ykrOGm2qr8ZNi_EN3lhOHHyx6XP4cEB-RQeMpuJVP74wXJYOvPhhYUM8oqPJ7NvP9Jlewo-nt0zYGFOLhlWBiFkaLKQudEEA39urbofDzNjCkHq8fsWlW-59UEuZkjR72uUfyoo6BGlbP0-xkU6v9_jBVBmQFCd0IYpP36_tHvuYiDhdOc5huGBxAwIWNSrx5s8HvKrQK1KYhrivHhdIjyDKNaglEZoXQlFCoxksJsoP3yga1BG5NMLI8gnRf6zfmPaYOTbIwW5b5HzpDLHz6YA5yrF54Gsm6BmjBp11pDqSBXqRLg==> - Unsubscribe Preferences <https://u8415165.ct.sendgrid.net/asm/?user_id=8415165&data=-l3vszrsx_ndG4T2l7vTBExspevEDWBHnah63-NVzMPM6h6b3kabl84ov7Q0UXTEmgMXrH7o4KVattwxGQzBEuts3nOMfNKTyjMZGmsXGX0T3Z938Ysxeixc5tFAaFz5wIvAamQLwLzR_d2s1CDkSDucCVLKqV-ddz8qVyQvkxtxkfDO_C_QnnUULVVkeatSpLxDEWA9MaapLxVMCwh8qy1xomvoZbEufBmv0N3cq4BnXawrmQ9HzvBXY_lUML10MagC375rO8CVtuUFqscR48NLLTR4ZwlaFCtQa_xGwAslLrvgR5COFiKVtJ1y5yGgJNL-gudOngKdE0RQs1uyWscgbmjzmGsjwnAVJEugjqImhwnN7hZQQQMrE8NnEOfy9W05e8sXjEOXVo5n01-MkAM7Pqjw0T4KdFcT9Af9NrQ01hawk2Tf4qBDd7ujoGAOzR9rd6Bj5tqfJ5x2bOe8lk88aRvmFKgntm7k5mnfMbc6iJDp5B13k8NBLrNzu0In9TfH1L6LZEa0sVdrEc3Y7dJUpcJYp98Y2sGqKiaA6gqfOfAVgn3m5-xAnDJ0gWL-> - Check out the Commons Transition Plan here at: http://commonstransition.org P2P Foundation: http://p2pfoundation.net - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net <http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation>Updates: http://twitter.com/mbauwens; http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens #82 on the (En)Rich list: http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/
