John Cooper Works (JCW) is a company founded in 2000 by John Cooper, the racing car maker and tuner responsible for the Mini Cooper. JCW produces tuning parts and accessories for BMW's new Mini.
When John Cooper died shortly after creating JCW, management passed to his son Michael Cooper. BMW Group considered JCW to be "strong enough to be developed as a good sub-brand" and acquired the rights to the name in January 2007, and bought out the company in 2008. Michael Cooper continues to work with JCW as a consultant.

“We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. And we have come to believe in Christ Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by doing the works of the law, because no one will be justified by the works of the law.”
—Bible: New Testament, Galatians 2:15-16.
