We can observe today an increasing number of initiatives experimenting with alternative ways of measuring and sharing value in companies, communities and networks.
Why should we explore alternatives? Which alternative models already exist? Are monetary rewards necessary? How could we create a new model that better serves a creativity and knowledge economy?
This session brings together representatives from 4 different organizations that are asking themselves these questions and trying to find answers by building various new models for measuring contributions and distributing value.
The following organizations will share stories and concrete examples of successes and failures in pursuing this:
Cobudget, a collaborative funding and participatory budgeting tool, being used by the Enspiral network and other organizations.
Gratipay, a platform that provides payments and payroll for open work. They have launched pilot projects where employees set their own salaries.
Thanks & Share: a human learning & natural intelligence network that enables founders and contributors to share the company’s equity with a model they have developed.
Cocoon Projects: an open enterprise that starts, supports and accelerates value driven, innovative projects. They’ve developed the Liquido framework for open companies.
