Forum Cooperative

Forum Cooperative deploys a variety of technologies - including blockchain- to enhance the integrity and transparency in elections and related activities.

Why blockchain? First introduced more than a decade ago to power the cryptocurrency revolution, decentralized blockchains are now used by an array of leading organizations and corporations to track and verify transactions, improve processes, and promote visibility across any enterprise.

Forum Cooperative is leading the way in applying leading-edge technologies to the electoral process by focusing on the following four pillars:

Decentralized blockchain technology will help reshape corporate governance models ensuring they are aligned with 21st-century shareholder expectations and today's constant visibility. Business procedures, hiring practices, and a commitment to sustainability are just three of features that will be transparent in a blockchain-based governance model. Such transparency will affect Board elections, new business proposals, earnings calls, shareholder votes, and other high-profile procedures.

Blockchain-based elections provide constituents with an end-to-end voting process that offers unprecedented visibility into each step of the system - from administering voting hubs to collecting and tallying ballots to storing data.

Forum Cooperative's advanced technology will result in secure, private and auditable voting records - whether voting takes place on a blockchain ledger, via electronic voting, or with traditional paper ballots - or a hybrid of all three. Regardless of how public preferences are captured, Forum Cooperative's technology can securely gather and store voting data for auditing purposes.

Public opinion can be quickly, securely, and accurately captured and shared with Forum Cooperative's efficient, blockchain-based polling and surveying applications. Because the data resides on the blockchain, it is immutable and transparent adding a needed layer of trust to poll results.
