# Venture communism

An association of co-operatives that is the sole owner of all the assets of all constituent worker-owned firms.

> All land, buildings, capital etc. are rented by the co-ops from the venture commune. All members of co-ops are automatically members of the commune. Hence, the means of production are communally owned.

> A venture commune is not bound to one physical location where it can be isolated and confined. Similar in topology to a peer-to-peer network, Telekommunisten intends to be [[decentralized]], with only minimal coordination required amongst its international community of producer-owners.
