Understanding Ecosystems and how they work is becoming essential for us.
Recognizing ecosystems are vital, combining humans, technology and data allow us to pursue multiple possibilities, explore them faster than before, evaluate them in quicker, smarter ways and scale those that show promise for all of us to be more efficient, considerate and respectful of finite resources. Ecosystem designs allow us to undergo a change from individualism to revaluing community and supporting each other in resourceful ways and respecting all that is around us needs to be more balanced.
We can search and build entirely new capabilities by connecting technology and different people.
