The central theme is collaboration. Companies have to create a community and be inclusive instead of working in silos. Collaboration is key - companies, operators, partners, industry groups must work together to create an ecosytem. Companies can no longer work alone if they want to remain competitive and produce quality products and services. There must be mechanism for discussion and debate about topics. You must change the mindest of employees, partners, and companies. Companies can no longer create autonomous projects. Deployment is the measure of an ecosystem along with with the number of users using it.
