Don Tapscott - "Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything"
Don will be talking about Wikinomics, which is based on four ideas: Openness, Peering, Sharing, and Acting Globally.
The use of mass collaboration in a business environment, in recent history, can be seen as an extension of the trend in business to outsource: externalize formerly internal business functions to other business entities.
The difference however is that instead of an organized business body brought into being specifically for a unique function, mass collaboration relies on free individual agents to come together and cooperate to improve a given operation or solve a problem.
