Team Triody.Com

As a result of my dissertation work, I was interested in exploring the process of creating and maintaining an online social network. Drawing on my interests in endurance sports, I decided to initiate community which I refer to as Team Triody.Com.

It is a community of endurance sports enthusiasts that regularly gather on and around the EPFL campus to do triathlon workouts.

After one months of existence, we have a total memberbase of 32 and a relatively regular information exchange. We meet for “offline” training sessions and discuss training and social activity related issues “online”.

A more in depth update will follow soon.

How can firms leverage the intellectual capacity and human resources of academic institutions?

Next week, I will start working on a first assignment. The client is interested in how proximity to academic institutions can be leverage for its own operations. More precisely, the goal of the project is to identify interesting fields of research which firms on the one hand are currently puzzled with and which on the other hand can be nurtured by academic research.
