The incubation of WikiDeal community and platform is managed by the non-profit Ynternet.org foundation, whose mission is to promote free digital culture at large (free licensing, remix culture, wikinomics, open design and innovation).
Ynternet.org is a citizen-based fondation created in 1998. It’s based in Geneva Switzerland, with headquarters at the University of Applied Science in Geneva (Campus of Batelle) and a hosting site in the Smala Berber Ecovillage in Grandvaux (UNESCO Patrimony), a beautiful location on the Geneva lakeside where we can receive experts, guests and digital nomads for workshops.
When we’ll have a minimum viable product and some hundreds of users actively contributing, we plan to launch an independent non-profit company named WikiDeal in Switzerland, 100 % owned by users, adopting fully the governance of Wikipedia & Debian and respecting social economy standards.
Our know-how
