John Cooper Works (JCW) is a British car marque now owned by BMW and it is an in-house tuning, development, and international automotive racing division for Mini vehicles. It was founded in 2002 by Michael Cooper, son of John Cooper, the racing car maker and tuner responsible for the original Mini Cooper.

In 2007, German automaker BMW acquired the rights to the name,[1] and it bought out the company in 2008.[2]
