A half day enterprise forum exploring models of collaboration in the
field of OpenTechnology. Whether it's businesses or the cultural and
voluntary sector, Open Source Software and the Internet have provided
the freedom to build technologies to suit your creative needs. However
it still takes substantial resources and knowhow to realise your
project.

PeerInvestment aims to show how partnerships using public domain
working models can benefit initiatives, enterprises and projects of
all scales. Our focus for this event will be on Open Source Software;
developer communities, forming open development projects, sharing
costs on a project, or working in large scale consortiums.

PeerInvestment wants to emphasize that outside traditional business
models, new business concepts have emerged based on the shared values
of cooperation, information sharing, peer review and transparency.
