Length: 32:16
There are an increasing number of platforms that enable collaboration and serious funds are being invested into them. We see many sites launching in the space of sharing, learning, and making, and this panel will explore the needs, causes, dynamics, and the opportunities of this new way of increasing knowledge, skills, and social products. We will answer questions like: How much of online collaboration is actually new, amplifies offline processes, or simply reflects the offline reality? How does technology change and enable collaboration, and what are the advantages/challenges? What are the (new) economics of this way of working and its effects? What are the opportunities and challenges for education, production, and social change within these new initiatives? Renowned experts will share their unique perspectives on their investment in collaborative consumption, shared work spaces, collaborative learning, and making.
