Collaborative Intelligence and Decentralized Business Community Building–Potentials in Food/Nutrition Sector

This paper shows the potential of Luxembourg Slovenian Business Club's applied research in Collaborative Intelligence for building of large decentralized business communities in Food/Nutrition sector and enabling the creation of consortia at developing new business models. Although Food/Nutrition sector, and related communities are dispersed in many ways: geography, traditions, living standard, ideology, taste preferences, etc., eating is one of the most universal activities. Global challenges are pointing at Mega-trends which are opening opportunities for decentralized collaboration along the whole Food/Nutrition value chain. LSBC is looking to transfer its experience with Collaboration on a micro level (use case of community building of local small food producers) to decentralized communities on a large scale. LSBC is exploring community building fostering mechanisms, based on Blockchain technology, by applying principles of AI networks, such as self-regulation, self-learning, and developing concept such as stimulating connecting activity of agents/nodes. The main goal of this research is to establish principles of effective information exchange that will enable the creation of communication tools for optimizing connectivity of decentralized communities.
