Turbulence by Roland Kupers
How can multinational companies develop a set of new collaborative business models that can contribute to increased system resilience of cities, regions or countries? Aggressively forward-thinking, and consistent with an enlightened self-interest, the ideas considered here represent a corporate perspective on the broad collaborations required for a more resilient world.
