FROM THE TOP : It's about the Network
Trendlines Chairman Steve Rhodes wrote the following after the venture conference in Philadelphia on December 8, 2005.

Today's world is too complex for any one individual or even for a small group working together to make major breakthroughs. Today, innovation is a collaborative effort that involves many people creating, sharing knowledge, and building off of the accomplishments of their predecessors.

So, too, in building businesses, creating and expanding networks and developing means for maintaining and leveraging those contacts is networks is of critical importance.
