Now guess why Intel and Microsoft aren't European companies :)
- doingmaths 3y agoMondragon is. You might not be familiar with them, but they are a federation of co-ops in Europe that are a billion dollar business and are the 10th largest industrial group in Spain. They do R&D, Finance, Manufacturing, and a bunch of other stuff. https://www.mondragon-corporation.com/en/ https://www.mondragon-corporation.com/en/ There's no axiomatic reason why an Intel or Microsoft couldn't be a co-op or federation of co-ops. It just didn't shake out that way this time.
