I also think companies house has dealt with a lot of the discrepancies there as well.<br /><br />In general the LLP model is a good model for small worker co-ops, (I only say small as I haven't seen any larger scale worker co-ops adopt it).John Athertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09335465474707227574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372264260202259467.post-83498336066030982362013-02-20T12:22:51.377+00:002013-02-20T12:22:51.377+00:00Have any of the drawbacks noted here been solved o...Have any of the drawbacks noted here been solved or improved now in 2013?Simon Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06519017136713102363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372264260202259467.post-12142920697190022402009-11-03T08:59:09.106+00:002009-11-03T08:59:09.106+00:00We only have a few LLP Co-operatives but as the po...We only have a few LLP Co-operatives but as the post points out with the right partnership agreements they can indeed qualify as Co-operatives. We are seeing a growing number of IT/Creative professionals looking at the co-operative model. Its great way for people who don't want to run a business on their own and want to share this equitably between workers/partners.<br /><br />If your interested give me a call or email.John Athertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09335465474707227574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372264260202259467.post-22726899871485341382009-11-02T19:29:49.906+00:002009-11-02T19:29:49.906+00:00I found this article very interesting as my busine...I found this article very interesting as my business partner and I recently incorporated as an LLP ourselves. I'm very supportive of co-operativism but I'd always assumed that an LLP wouldn't technically count as a co-operative.<br /><br />It would be particularly fitting since our company, yoomoot.com, is focused on improving mass conversations and mass collaboration.
