IKOCITI - Empowering The Powerless

NEWSLETTER FOR THE CURIOUS PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO BUILD PROGRESS

ISSUE #45

I believe that we are in the early days of what will be remembered as one of the greatest times to be alive for hyper-curious people

- Paul Millerd

BUILDING IN PUBLIC

  PROGRESS

  • PITCH. I finished a Pitch presentation called IkoCiti 101. It is an intro presentation for joint-venture, financial & co-creator partners.

  • BENTO.ME. I finished a Bento.me page showcasing my digital universe in an easy and concise way. It is not terribly important but just a nother piece of the puzzle done.

 SETBACKS

  • COLD AGAIN. No real setbacks. Only it appears that I am getting down with a cold again (2x in a month). I cancelled tennis practice for tomorrow - wanted to try a new forehand grip. 

 THINGS TO IMPROVE

  • NO ISSUES. 

#46 - SHIT WILL HIT THE FAN [P2]

IS IT A MATCH?

In part 1 of this series (#46), we decided to create our own version of the Rendanheyi (RDHY) model. Each of the 20 districts of IkOciti would be governed by independent commercially-driven macro-ventures. We call them macro-ventures because they coordinate and encourage a swarm of independent micro-ventures that perform most of the operational tasks on the platform. The chosen structure of macro & micro ventures decentralizes decision-making resulting in less bureaucracy. Yet what might work on paper does not always work in reality.

What is the potential caveat of using the commercially-driven macro-ventures on an impact-first platform?
