Webarchitects are pleased to be hosting the next gathering of a network of tech co-ops across the UK and beyond. CoTech was formed to grow the interaction and work between co-operators, to nurture an increase in the common wealth (and fun) between them.
The thirty-plus member co-ops are focussed on a wide variety of internet/tech/arts activities, so between them there is a large pool of talents. Working in the spirit of co-operation rather than competition has generated a larger income to them than before CoTech was launched in 2016.
The Spring Gathering venue is DINA, 32 Cambridge Street, Sheffield. This building (originally the city’s first ‘Free School’) was renovated by volunteers in 2016 as a not-for-profit social enterprise. It has disabled access, various rooms, bar and a vegetarian/vegan cafe.
Local housing co-operatives have kindly offered help with accommodation to people travelling to Sheffield. Argentinian co-operators will be among the attendees.
CoTech Spring Gathering runs from Thursday 25th to Friday 26th April 2019, including a Thursday night social evening with DJ Serious Sounds. Full details here and booking is online at Tickets For Good.
