Scotland’s approach to co-operative development

promotes co-operative and employee
ownership business models. During
2013/14 it supported 36 new ventures
and buy-outs across the country,
nurturing successful collaboration and
succession in businesses from a variety
of sectors.
With refreshed strategies we will focus on:
Community ownership
Community
co-operatives are
organisations set up to
provide services, using
co-operative principles to
guide their organisation
and their activities.
Shared ownership enables
communities to develop
services, such as renewable
energy and broadband
provision.
Successful succession
Selling to employees allows owners to
manage their exit from a business and achieve
a competitive price while safeguarding the
long-term future of the company.
Voice Technologies, a specialist provider of
speech recognition, digital dictation and
automated correspondence technology for
the healthcare, legal and government sectors
became employee-owned to provide a
platform for further growth.
