In this interview, I spoke with the Shaun Fensom, a pioneer of worker cooperatives in the internet space with over three decades of experience. As the co-founder of Poptel, one of UK's pioneering Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Shaun connected Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and human rights organizations to the internet, including South Africa's African National Congress (ANC) during apartheid. Collaborating with the US National Cooperative Business Association (NCBA), he launched the .coop top-level domain, empowering cooperatives worldwide. Shaun's recent work includes leading Cooperative Network Infrastructure (CNI), revolutionizing digital infrastructure sharing, and advising city authorities in the UK on deploying digital resources for societal progress. Join us as we explore Shaun's remarkable journey and his endeavors to promote ethical banking and cooperative ideals.
