Funding OVNs or other types of open ventures

[applied to the VIE open innovation hub context] 

Since we launched the VIE project, sensoricans have been very busy designing funding strategies for the open world (open networks, open ventures, open source groups of all sorts,...). We got a lot of ideas on this topic through our personal exchanges, from different levels of government, from the academic and the private sector, as well as from hybrid organizations. We think we have enough to start a discussion with the open world. We want to share with you everything we've learned, all in a nutshell. We invite the open world to refine with us the funding strategy and to collaborate with us to put it into practice. 

Crowdfunding is also on the table, but we'll go beyond that.

Michel Bauwens presents at HEC Montreal with Sensorica

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.
