nobody thought about-valuation?

-etc.

-etc.

-etc.

-what IS new?-what has to change to make it a sustainable model?

-how can we lower thresholds-business opportunities-how can we connect ‘old’ and ‘new’ economy?

key questions

what’s

clear is… ‘We are living in a time where the

individual is empowered to organise him/herself. Mostly facilitated by online platforms.

Without the traditional barriers like

hierarchy, old boys network, etc.

wel

duidelijk ‘We leven in een tijd waarin het

individu wordt empowered zichzelf

te organiseren. Vaak gefaciliteerd

door online platformen. En vaak

buiten traditionele kanalen om.’

first insights & some food4thought

1. why is it hard to

implement for

exciting

organisations

2. opportunities for

entrepreneurs

3. key insights

integrate in big organisations

#1Risk and reputation. Outsource? Acquisition?

#2No sense of urgency.

#3Project-based approach.

#4Looking into the wrong corner when talking about innovation.

#5Internal processes are deadly for innovation.

business opportunities

#1Orientating? Focus on the vulnerable sectors.

#2Getting more efficiency out of your exciting resources.

#3Facilitate your employees.

#4Facilitate your customers to use their recourses more effective.

#5Crowd Economy as a part of your daily business.

#6Join the platform eco system.

#7Join forces with new initiatives.

key insights

#1Focus in media and discussion at the BIG examples. They don’t give a good picture of the market and the potential.

#2Misbalance and struggle between commerce and ideals. There is nothing wrong with earning money. There is something wrong with earning NO money.

#3How sustainable are these ‘new economy’ companies.

#4Crowd (sharing) companies don’t share a lot. Everybody is inventing the wheel themselves: software, legal documents, etc.

#5Reputation (data).

#6Old versus new.

#6Old versus new*

The clash between new and old is not a

collaborative economy issue. It is about

disruptive innovation and change.

#6Old versus new*

The clash between new and old is not a

collaborative economy issue. It is about

disruptive innovation and change.

and the great thing iswe all have an idea, a vision, a meaning on crowdfunding, but NOBODY has THE answer.

and despite all the ‘ifs’ and ‘buts’it's super cool what's happening and there are a huge amount of good opportunities.

join the expedition!
