What federation means

A federation is a layered organization, not a takeover.

01

Autonomy preserved

You keep your name, your team, your members, your culture, your decisions. We don't absorb you. We connect you.

02

Branded org page

Your organization gets a dedicated page on fign.org you control the copy and photos for. Your story, your way.

03

Shared resources

Templates, playbooks, sponsorship decks, contact lists, joint funding applications. Built once, used by all.
