In order to secure the maximum commitment to the project and to avoid potential conflict with trade unions it is absolutely imperative the whole village to be registered as a co-operative company.
We suggest the emission of 10.000.000 shares of which 51% reserved to residents, 40% to the investors and 9% to management.
To secure the success of the project it is vital to attract and retain in the village the best possible quality of people, including a certain number of researchers and experts.
It will be necessary to adopt stringent screening procedures, in order to recruit the best available people and not to burden the project with unsuitable elements. This screening process must be continuous, enabling the village to democratically remove the less compatible elements on a monthly basis.
In this way it will be possible to continuously improve the quality of the people involved, assuring at the same time, their best commitment.
As the major investment in this project will be the cost of training the residents, a good health should be a basic prerequisite for selection, in order to reassure the investors on the long-term return of the training provided.
To boost motivation every month 10 shares can be donated to each worker, 40 to each expert and 80 to each resident specialist until the total distribution of 5.100.000 shares will be obtained.
The first six months of residing at the village is to be considered as a training period and only after successfully completing this period it should be possible to register as permanent residents.
Whoever, for whatever reason, will cease to be a permanent resident will have to sell his (or her) shares in an auction open to permanent residents only, the procedure being a sort of liquidation for the contribution given to the village.
In this way we make sure that eventually the majority of shares will be in the hands of reliable and professionally qualified people, who have lived in the village for several years.
Those people are going to be the best possible partners to investors and management in order to ensure the long-term success of the project.
