Yes, it has finally happened. A team including myself and two others, met in Auckland to discuss opportunities in a digital age. We discussed how we may benefit humanity and ourselves through exploring our own ideas. A number of great ideas were discussed and I suggested those that we didn’t have the time or energy to explore should be published to the world - so others might also benefit from our ideas.
What amazes me, is that many of the ideas I thought were original, were published on blogs the morning of our meeting, before my team even had an opportunity to discuss the idea. But I don’t see this as any reason to trash a business opportunity, as you can always add your own spin on an opportunity and we live in an age where information is shared at an alarming rate - I doubt Richard Pearse or the Wright brothers would have stopped trying to fly just because they knew someone else was working on the airplane across the world.
The team is yet to incorporate itself or set up a website… but planning has begun and an online presence and a sneak preview of what we are going to be all about is only a few weeks away. The rest of the team will also be blogging about progress and web 2.0 influences, but their blogs are not yet available - so stay tuned!
