      <text bytes="5128" sha1="2hixiwnhi8892uvyhqdvc04asxdl5dp" xml:space="preserve">This wiki describes the ''Open Value Network'' organizational model ([[OVN]] for short) and its implementation in real-live [[ventures]]. It also describes the [[Economic model|OVN economic model]], which is our flavor of the [[p2p economy]] or [[peer production]], or the [[4th sector]], in practice and in theory. Consider it first as a ''knowledge repository of practitioners'', people who decide to do things differently. The OVN model emerged from practice within [[Sensorica]] and got refined over the years (since 2011). It is still evolving. This stands in contrast with models that are proposed by various groups, sometimes ideologically biased, describing possible worlds. OVNs exist and their impact is real. At the same time, this wiki is also a great source of information and inspiration for those who evolve in traditional organizational settings, but want to engage in hybrid activities, in [[open innovation]], [[open science]] or [[open source]] development, interface with online communities or any ''open network'' out there.


''Open network-type organizations'' are not new, but with the advent of the digital technology they've came to the mainstream, as they have become channels for great achievements in the past three decades, and are starting to be seen as necessary vehicles for global and complex endeavors. We believe that [[OVN]] is the organization of the future. Nothing is certain about the future, but the past 30 years we've seen an exponential increase in their presence and size, in almost all spheres of human activity.


If you are new to these concepts, you may want to start with a review of '''[[Peer to peer| the history of peer-to-peer, the culture that emerged around it, the p2p economy that evolved to sustain this culture, and the social norm and practices that define p2p today]].'''

 '''If you find this wiki inspiring, you can drop a [https://www.sensorica.co/support-us DONATION TO HELP Sensoricans] maintain and improve it.'''

=NEW: REVISION EFFORT=

 '''ATTENTION: We are going through another systematic revision cycle of the OVN model. See more on [[OVN 3.0]] page.'''

=Definition=
''Open Value Network (OVN)'' refers to a new organizational framework designed to support [[commons-based peer production]]. This [[organization]] is by nature and from birth [[transnational]].

More on [[What is an open value network?]]

=Background=

The OVN organizational model was first proposed, developed and implemented by [[Sensorica]] affiliates to support ''material'' [[commons-based peer production]] (i.e. the production of material things by open networks), in early 2011. Sensorica was created in February 2011 - see [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ixgp8_B9g5A the 2013 TEDx video presentation] by [[Tibi]].

The following are organizations that identify, to various degrees, with the OVN model as described here. 
* [[Sensorica]] - birthplace of the model

All sufficiently decentralized and permissionless blockchain services such as [[Bitcoin]] and [[Ethereum]] are OVNs. 

[[DAO]]s are a special breed of OVNs, mostly operating in the digital realm.
