This interconnectivity increased the power of users and the way they communicate. It modified not just peer to peer communication but also <b>the way public communicates with companies or governments</b>. These changes offered more power than before to the demand side of the systems. Consumers are more able than ever to express their desires. Desiring a product and <b>having no producer to fulfill your need is an exception</b>. Nowadays the 100 high-end consumers from Germany who desire flighting bikes can easily get in touch with the 200 people in Japan with the same desire and with the 50 in Finland and so on.

In the same time companies learned about the necessity of a more organized innovation process (2015). Nowadays the companies <b>focus more than ever on the implementation </b>side of innovations and less on the supply side of new ideas. Because new ideas come from everywhere. Digital tools allow companies to easily filter the valuable ones from the less valuable. <b> Having the gold idea is not the competitive advantage anymore. Being fast at implementation is the key. </b> <br><br>
<b>Corporate Innovation</b> is done in teams of corporations. The new business model is very much network-based.
