WHO WE ARE

The Wecoop game has been created to celebrate the international year of cooperation, from an idea of

Marco Benoni, Vittorio Pelligra and Carlo Tedde.

The initial group has been joined by young pedagogues, economists, mathematicians and designers who accepted the challenge of making some key principles of the project concrete and playable:

  • You can not win unless you win together

  • The market is not a zero-sum game, where for someone to win the others must lose

  • Without mutual trust the economic system is jammed

  • Investing in a good reputation is always a great deal

  • A company that produces wealth for itself but not for the territory in which it operates can not be said to be a successful business
