Here we go!

by Tomas on March 28, 2009

I am setting up this website to log the progress of my thesis research on Non-competitive Hybrid Open Source Projects.

Given the fair amount of obscure buzzwords, I aim make sense out of the overwhelming amount of information published on the topic in recent years.

Provisionally,

  • by non-competitive I mean cooperation on mutually non-competitive developments, e.g. cooperation of a hardware and software communities;
  • by hybrid I mean open innovation between a commercial company and external voluntary (?) community;
  • open source projects = en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source.

By the end of this journey, I hope to have established a set of guidelines on how to manage innovation across organisations and submit a limited, yet focused thesis to the Department of Media and Communications at the London School of Economics.

And yes, I hope to be funny here and there.
