We knew from the beginning that we were looking for companies with a genuine interest in change and a real challenge that needs creative solutions. We seem to have stumbled on a perfect case.
Exclusive Cottons of the Caribbean is a Barbados-based company that buys the cotton grown on Barbados, to market and sell on the domestic and international markets. This special, hand-picked long-staple cotton grown on Barbados and Jamaica is called West Indian Sea Island Cotton (WISIC). This logo was created in the 1940s. WISIC is considered to be among the finest cottons in the world, partly because of its long staples.
Our challenge is to find new ways to lift the Barbados cotton industry, from exporting cotton lint to developing and selling cloth, textiles and finished goods. Anders is going to Barbados in two weeks to find out more.

We're setting up shop!
Saturnus/Stockholm, May 13 2009
It doesn't take much. Four people at a café who like telling others what to do.
And since we have a lot of friends who are actually wise enough to tell others what to do, we created
cOOper united
We believe that most people are good at business development. We also believe that by bringing people together from different backgrounds and letting them play business consultants for a day, we can develop products and services that nobody wants to do without - using clever collaborations and smart communication.
So let's play.
