Creation
If you want to create a project based on the cooperative formula this programme is for you. We offer support in defining your business, structuring viability and managing different formal actions and procedures. We also design roadmaps to transform associations and companies into cooperatives.
Incubation and acceleration
If you are an incubated project in Bloc4BCN, you can benefit from the project incubation and acceleration programmes, by which we want to ensure your long-term sustainability and viability. Organisations in the incubation programme will participate in different itineraries depending on the needs and potentials they would like to explore, and those in the acceleration programme will work on similar concepts as well as intercooperation.
Growth and consolidation for non-incubated projects
If you have already created your cooperative project and want to improve some aspects of management and operation, but you are not housed in Bloc4BCN, you might be interested in this programme! We offer you specific, intensive and precise support linked to a concrete objective to bolster your cooperative identity and extend your growth. At Bloc4BCN we provide support to ensure sustainable growth and consolidation. If you want to take a leap in scale or open new lines of business, this programme is for you!
In addition, if you’d like to make a specific query or your organisation has another legal formula within Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE), such as an association, you can count on SAESS, Social and Solidarity Economy Advisory Service of Barcelona Activa.
Networking programme
Cooperation among cooperatives is one of the core principles of the SSE. That is why Bloc4BCN stands as one of the key players in fostering and extending existing links. If you are interested in working on intercooperation as a means to tackle social challenges and strengthen local economies and the Catalan social market, this is your programme.
