, <u>consumers</u>, is stronger and stronger. They shout out their desires and the companies who want to have access to their pockets must be fast in fulfilling those wishes.  <u>Companies</u>, small and big, know that alone, as standalone businesses, they cannot be fast enough. <br>[[File:Networks.jpg|600px]]<br>

For these reason if ideas generation can be managed by each company the implementation part must be in a team. This is how the new corporation got born - which is a network of old corporations. In 2010 companies had issues with implementation inside their companies only (see 2010-2015), however nowadays companies must be fast in learning aggregated implementation of innovation. The winers are the ones who learn it the fastest.  <br>[[file:Piranha_fish.jpg|150px|right]]

Corporate ventures, partnership and open innovation are the main tools companies use to implement innovation. The Google 2010 innovation style is of no use for companies (20% of the time to generate new ideas). Employees need to spend time in implementing perfectly instead of creating new ideas.

The business playground is very active - big networks (the new corporation model) play against <i> new born fast small networks.</i> Will the big sharks buy the small fishes? They would but the small guys are motivated and they learned the rules of the game are like piranha [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha].

For sure <b>consumers are the winners</b> in this scenario. On the reverse side however the need for speed creates <b> labour exploitation</b>.
