Exploring Alternative Ownership Enterprises Globally: Lessons and Models for a More Just Economy

Alternative Ownership Enterprise
May 30, 2025

From Steward Ownership in Europe to cooperatives in Latin America to Employee Ownership in Sub-Saharan Africa, Alternative Ownership Enterprise models are shifting who holds power, who builds wealth, and who benefits in the global economy.

Join Transform Finance for a webinar that highlights lessons learned and inspiring examples of Alternative Ownership Enterprises (AOEs) from around the world—firms that significantly shift economic value and decision-making power toward the non-investor stakeholders they impact, such as workers, producers, consumers, community members, or even a non-financial purpose. In this session, you’ll hear rapid-fire insights from 6 experts, engage in robust discussion and join small-group breakouts to dig deeper.

Featured Speakers:

With Julie Menter, Program Director at Transform Finance, as moderator.

Whether you’re an investor, funder, field builder, or advocate for economic justice, you’ll leave with a comparative understanding of AOEs across different regions and fresh insights on their financing, design, and potential.

Register now for this webinar at 10am ET / 4pm CEST on June 26th to explore practical solutions to building a more just economy. The 90 minute webinar will include an hour of presentations and Q&A and 30 minutes of smaller, focused conversations in break-out rooms.
