NL economy is largely defined & driven by non-renewablesMessage detailing requirement for economic diversification is out there, .... NO Congruent Strategic Plan to achieve the AimNumber of technology groups & associations:

→ individual agendas,→ individual strategies

We Connect...We Communicate... We Cooperate... but, We don’t Collaborate!!

From Networks to Collaboration

Networking: Involves communication and information exchange for mutual benefit

Coordinated Network: In addition to exchanging information, it involves aligning/altering activities so that more efficient results are achieved.

Cooperation: Involves not only information exchange and adjustment of activities, but also sharing resources for achieving compatible goals.

Collaboration: A process in which entities share information, resources and responsibilities to jointly plan, implement and evaluate a program of activities to achieve a common goal. Collaboration is always in view of an agreed result, objective or end state

• Cooperation can be passive

• Collaboration is always active
