Our way to Collaborative Sharing based on Dr. Needham’s books Collaborative Commonwealth and Escaping Economic Slavery (both on Amazon)

Collaborate​

Collaboration is the working together of two or more individuals or companies on an idea, project, product, or service that results in its commercialization and each member of the collaboration share pro-rata in profits and rewards according to their contribution.

Collaborations can be by agreement or organization structure.  They can be internal, external, or both.  Often, they have public and private members on the team.

Sharing is the new Equity

Share

From childhood, we are told to share.  As adults, we tend to keep mostly for ourselves. At CFCS, we believe in a concept called Sharing Capitalism™ created by our Founder, Dr. Robert A. Needham. We share from our excess, also called abundance, and sow into individuals and communities. In return, we receive a harvest based on the principle found in Dr. Needham’s book, Why Divide When You Can Multiply?: “One seed stewarded well can feed an entire nation.”
