Systemic innovation
From Knowledge Federation
As Wikipedia and World of Warcraft might illustrate, information technology can now power radically new ways for people to cooperate across the globe and co-create knowledge and tackle challenges; and yet knowledge-work practices have remained largely as they have evolved based on printed text as medium. Systemic innovation is the development of new socio-technical systemic solutions for key domains such as education, science, journalism and governance.
As innovation tends to, systemic innovation offers numerous possibilities to business. Systemic innovation also opens up an academic frontier, which is in a true sense fundamental, because it offers us a way to work with the very foundations on which knowledge is created. And finally, and perhaps most importantly, systemic innovation provides an uncommonly promising way of handling contemporary issues, whose nature is – when properly understood – systemic.
