Palante Tech is excited to announce Benjamin Doherty as the newest member of our cooperative! Benjamin, aka bangpound on Drupal.org and elsewhere online, is a longtime Drupal developer and contributor to Drupal core and modules. Benjamin has great experience working with progressive nonprofit organizations; he's also a blogger at the Electronic Intifada. Benjamin brings his ace skills and extensive experience to Palante's web work and is already elbow-deep in Drupal site building for some of our awesome clients. We're thrilled to welcome Ben to our team and we're excited about how this growth will allow us to provide better services and support to more progressive and movement organizations.

Palante Technology has been together for a while, and for months we have been working towards this moment. Last Friday, thanks to the help of the wonderful lawyers at the Urban Justice Center's Community Development Project, the four current worker-owners of Palante Tech signed the papers to officially become Palante Technology Cooperative, Incorporated! We are now an official New York State Cooperative Corporation. We're proud to have our official name reflect our commitment to collective organizing, and to supporting an alternative economy where all workers have respect, stability, and agency in their workplace. ¡Pa'lante!
