About Collaborative Networks

Here I am having the privilege and burden of being the first person to post in our brand-new and prosperous Social Business Talks blog.

Professor Alberto Cottica gave as a first assignment the opportunity to analyze how should a social business collaboration network between students and professors work and what would this shared knowledge base look like.

In the presentation you will notice I aimed my analysis at a whole different level since I find crucial having a clear visibility of the entire picture. Besides, Sir Francis Bacon once wrote: "When you wish to achieve results that have not been achieved before, it is an unwise fancy to think that they can be achieved by using methods that have been used before". The presentation below is divided in 4 parts:

1. Knowing how balance in a natural network (according
to Bernard Lietaer) is achieved may help us seeking sustainability, and even when it comes to internet collaboration it is most important.

2.
Recent studies have shown we are heading towards a more direct world where peer-to-peer applications and video format will rule the market. This "less for more" attitude coming both from developed and undeveloped countries, will enable disruptive innovation and therefore create unique methods of interaction and collaboration.

3. Some cases of successful collaboration: Open Architecture Network, The Zeitgeist Movement, Ask Nature.

4. What I consider from my humble point of view to be the most suitable long-term Social Business collaborative network.

After all we have to start somewhere and indeed, small is the first way to go. Let's do it!
