2018 Conference focus
Co-operative principles are applied internationally to multiple segments that make up the co-operative movement. Co-operatives for producers, consumers, as buying groups, in housing, services, the financial sector and many more are just some within the broad spectrum of co-operative activity. Feedback from Co-ops NSW members said it was time to look at the capacity, synergy and cross-benefits of the collaborative businesses of our co-operative sectors. The Co-ops NSW Conference 2018 focus was “Co-operative Sectors”.

Co-operatives are sometimes perceived as old fashioned but what is old is new again. The cake is a metaphor recognising the importance of traditional values while acknowledging contemporary challenges. The image sliced invitingly into segments demands attention. Co-operatives offer quality ingredients, nurtured, blended and packed with values freshly baked with vibrancy for today and tomorrow!
