Benefits
We are accomplished professionals, but no one of us can know everything. Whether it’s a new technology or one that's gone rusty, the cooperative has the collective experience to support its members through any challenge. SCC members help each other avoid common pitfalls and share experiences to succeed together.
It isn’t all about technology, either. We all run businesses, so we all share things like contracts, NDAs, insurance, tax services, and other things to help our businesses thrive.
