About Us

Hypha is a worker co-operative based in Toronto that collaborates with communities to build better relationships with technology. Our team of technologists, designers, and community organizers advise on sustainable practices, build capacity within organizations, and develop custom technologies to empower friends and neighbours – in the Great Lakes region and our virtual neighbourhoods.

The Co-operative

Hypha Worker Co-operative Inc. is a worker co-operative incorporated on August 1, 2019 in Ontario, Canada (Ontario Corporation No. 5019866).

Hypha is incorporated as a non-share capital worker co-operative under the Ontario Co-operative Corporations Act, 1990. This entails specific conditions on our primary object, size of membership, and role of members, as addressed in Article [1], [144.1], and [145] of the Act.

We are a non-profit organization. That means our organization does not operate with the primary purpose of generating profit. As per 2017's Cutting Unnecessary Red Tape Act, Hypha falls under neither the current Corporations Act, nor the Not-for-Profit Corporations Act, which both govern not-for-profit corporations in Ontario. Instead, we are a not-for-profit co-operative.

Hypha is a member of Canadian Worker Co-op Federation (CWCF), and through that affiliation is a member of the Ontario Co-operative Association (OCA) and Cooperatives and Mutuals Canada (CMC).¹
