1.C13.2 A GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICANT' S BUSINESS AND OTHER
ACTIVITIES.
Poptel is a long-standing, UK based Internet company providing high quality
services mainly to organizations in the social economy and social enterprise
sectors. Trade unions and cooperatives form a large part of its existing
markets.
The business is organised as a cooperative, majority owned by the employees.
Towards the end of 2000 Poptel raised substantial investment capital,
and this gave it the resources to create the winning alliance for .coop
and, together with its partners, to successfully build the registry and
its management structure. The
.coop registry is expected to become a model for future special purpose
TLDs. It supports verification, will soon support registrars, and perhaps
more importantly is a tool supporting the development of cooperative enterprises.
