The New York Cooperative Summit is a one-day event brings together New York State cooperative members, leaders, organizers and allies to share practical tools and strategies for starting, sustaining, and scaling the co-op ecosystem across the state. In 2024 the Summit was held in Syracuse and attracted 100 attendees, and this year the event is moving to Albany and anticipating 150 people.
This year’s theme is “Cooperative Resistance and Resilience: Cultivating a Statewide Movement for Economic Democracy.” Join cooperators from across New York State on October 4 in Albany, NY to explore how the cooperative model saves legacy businesses, promotes social and racial equity by reducing wealth and income gaps, and builds resilient communities through democratic ownership, now and into the future. All cooperators are invited—from consumer and worker to marketing, purchasing, agriculture, electric, food, finance and housing, or anyone curious about the cooperative business model.
