Projects · From ideas to collaboration

An idea can become shared work.

BenBiz does not need to start or deliver everything itself. We want people who recognise a need, develop a project or need help completing it to find one another here.

A project card is not an open call to join. Participation will be announced separately once the team, needs, responsibilities and terms are clear.

How can a project become a solidarity circle?

This is the process we intend to develop together. There is currently no self-service application system that publishes everyone’s project or automatically creates a circle.

  1. 01

    Describe your idea

    Which need does it address, and for whom? What is already available, and what is missing?

  2. 02

    Explore it together

    Discuss alignment with the principles, feasibility, the proposer’s permission and possible risks.

  3. 03

    Clarify needs and terms

    Set out tasks, timing, decision rights, costs and any pay or entitlement model.

  4. 04

    Form a circle and start small

    Bring suitable people together by mutual agreement, with a limited trial and clear responsibilities.

  5. 05

    Learn and grow what works

    Use results to continue, change or stop. Suitable projects may develop into an ongoing activity or a working enterprise.

Discover it here. Work together in a circle.

This website explains each project’s purpose and stage publicly. Once terms are agreed and a circle is formed, the intention is to track tasks, contributions and communication in the member app. Not every card has an active circle in the app today.

Let’s complement one another

Your project could begin here too.

Start with a short purpose, your current stage and the complementary contributions you need. You do not need to send confidential documents or personal data for a first conversation.

Share a project idea by email

Your email app opens; you choose whether to send the message. Sending it does not mean publication or acceptance.
