As different companies and technologies begin working together more and more, new models and procedures need to be developed. Learn how IBM's strategies are helping them keep current with new trends and technologies. In this talk from Supernova 2005, Alan Ganek discusses how IBM is implementing strategies to become part of a collaborative business model.
In business, like all relationships, Ganek points out that if you want to get something out of collaborative business you have to put something into it. As part of this strategy, IBM is using, supporting and contributing to open source projects and well as working with venture capitalists and small start-ups. This kind of collaboration is going to become essential for the future of business.
