On March 7th, 2013
Michel Bauwens (founder of
p2p foundation) was invited by Pr. Mai Thi Thanh to presented at Ecole des
Hautes Etudes Commerciales (HEC) in Montreal, Canada. At the same time,
Bob Haugen and is partner Lynn Foster, who work hard with us on
infrastructure development, also came to Montreal from Wisconsin USA, to help us transition to the
new version of our
contribution accounting system. They were also present at HEC that Thursday the 7th, with almost all other sensoricans from Montreal. Michel's presentation on p2p ended with a short introduction to the open value network model and to the contribution accounting system. [NOTE: the presentation was recorded and will be published here in April]
After the presentation, some of us continued the passionate discussion about p2p economics and the open value network well into the afternoon. This discussion was only interrupted for the time to walk to the nearest Greek restaurant, where we enjoyed ourselves until the owner almost kicked us out.Seven hours of sleep later we were back at it again over breakfast, talking about how to make Sensorica's model available to any group out there who wants to produce and distribute value the commons-based p2p way.
