Consortium of Societies
A consortium is a group of people or firms who have agreed to co-operate with each other.
We are a nonprofit alliance of top-tier cooperative societies and corporate partners dedicated to increasing the number of underrepresented minorities in cooperative education and cooperative leadership.
We are often having pool resources such as cooperative libraries, cooperative workshops, cooperative clinics, cooperative research activities, and cooperative doctorates and share them throughout the members of the group to benefit their members.
Our approach is advantageous because it allows stakeholders to leverage their combined resources, and cooperative expertise, to reach a wider societies and achieve more significant results.
As a consortium is an association of two or more individuals, companies, organizations, or governments with the objectives of participating in a common activity or pooling their resources for achieving a common goal.
The Consortium membership application comprises an essay explaining the member’s commitment to the organization’s mission, and a recommendation attesting to this commitment.

NAFI Cooperative Banking System:
A consortium bank is a bank created by numerous banks to fund a project that is too large for one bank to do alone. The purpose of creating a consortium bank is to leverage the assets of individual banks. All members in a consortium bank have equal ownership and no one bank has a controlling interest.
CONSORTIUM PARTNER:
Consortium Partner means a public-sector or non-profit organisation which, in agreement with the Beneficiary Institution, will receive part of the funding of the Grant to carry out part of the Selected Project(s).
Partners in the consortium can be exposed to new risks, incur additional costs, encounter fundamental ideological differences due to diversity, setting of unrealistic goals, inconsistency and lack of clarity on roles, competition between partners, lack of information and experience, inadequate resources, cultural.
Typical benefits include:
Reductions in costs through group purchasing (e.g., of electronic resources)
Increasing the ability through collaboration to advocate for the value and needs of libraries.
Improving the capacity and expertise of the members by providing professional development programs for library staff.
The Key Difference:
The key difference between private and consortium blockchains on this parameter is that on a private network, one entity or organisation can override a transaction. But in the case of a consortium blockchains, there are a group of organisations at its head that have this right.
Consortium Work:
A consortium lets its partners share relevant skills, experience and expertise in such a way that every business complements each another.
