INVITATION – SAVE THE DATE

IGA Conference on 13/11/2026 with the topic of „Modern Management of Cooperatives – How to Strike a Balance Between the Market and Participation“ at the RAIQA centre in Innsbruck

"Without market success, there can be no success in membership, and without participation, there can be no cooperative— so both are absolutely essential! The question then remains of how to weigh them: What is the goal, and what is a secondary consideration?"

(Dietmar Rößl)

Followed by lunch together.
