Virtual Organisation Breeding Environment - VBE
• VBE represents an association of organizations and number of related supporting institutions, adhering to a base long term cooperation agreement, and adoption of common operating principles and infrastructures, with the main goal of increasing their preparedness towards rapid configuration of temporary alliances for collaboration in potential Virtual Organisation. Namely, when business opportunity is identified by one member (acting as a broker) a subset of VBE organizations can be selected to form a VE/VO.
(Camarinha-Matos&Afsarmanesh 2008)

Professional Virtual Community - PVC

environment to facilitate the agile and fluid formation of
Virtual Teams (VTs) similar to that what VBE aims to provide
for VOs.
