CoLiga
Imagine a world without traditional companies—where people come together, where leftovers become resources, where a spare hour becomes babysitting or therapy, where the needs of the world are filled by enterprising people and labor is unchained. CoLiga has the vision to make it possible for anyone to create a local on-demand service company and empower a global community of local service providers. We offer a “platform-as-a-service” that allows people to create local marketplaces that empower individual, small, and medium-sized service companies while enabling cooperatives and more distributed governance.
