In 2015, Positive News chief executive Sean Wood established a co-operative as the parent organisation of Positive News' publishing company.[7] Positive News was the first media cooperative in the world to offer community shares globally through crowdfunding.[8] In January 2016, it was relaunched as a magazine.[6]
