Awesome Vicky!
I can't make it, but here are some questions:
Are the any structures for incorporation that do not require any hierarchy,
such as a board, but still has liability protections for the members or
co-owners?
We would be the drawbacks to forming a non-profit corporation where all
members are members of the board?
For a non-hierarchical non-profit member-driven organization such as sudo
room, would there be any advantages to being a California co-op where a
share costs a very low amount (e.g. $1) and all members have shares? As
apposed to becoming a traditional corporation.
