<p>The <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> Hypothese is a set of rules, processes, workflows and tools that together form an operation system designed to have large group of people work together efficiently, transparant and mission-driven on tools that should help people drive the SDGs forward. In essence we are trying to build a better toolkit for future generations. The operation system is described below as a living oranganism. Well dive in its its natural habitat, its anatomy, its metabolism and In a <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr>, “citizens” work collaboratively and interchangeably on ideas that have the potential to break old paradigms and show new ways forward.

<p>A <abbr title="A digital cooperative that builds tools for resilience and SDG advancement through trustworthy collective systems.">Smartup</abbr> is the <strong>opposite of a startup</strong>. Instead of racing toward an exit for venture capitalists, we're building sustainable technology businesses that tackle UN Sustainable Development Goals.</p>
<p><strong>The key difference</strong>: Everyone who contributes owns an equal share. Everyone sees every decision. Everyone focuses on impact, not stock prices.</p>
