COMING SOON

It appears large-scale collaboration, open-source research and crowd sourcing – the principles at heart of X-Culture, have already changed a number of industries.

• The largest accommodation provider owns no hotels (Airbnb)
• The largest taxi service provider owns no cars (Uber)
• The largest retailers have no stores (Alibaba, Amazon)
• The largest video entertainment provider owns no cinemas (YouTube, Nextflix)
• Largest software vendors don’t write apps (Apple, Google app stores)
• The largest phone companies own no telco infra (Skype, WeChat)
• The world’s largest encyclopedia employs no professional writers (Wiki)

However, a number of industries are still stuck in the old paradigm of “do it in house”. X-Culture wants to change it, including in the industries of:

• Business education
• Business consulting
• Business research
• Teaching/Research assistants
• Venture capital
