Building Value By Building Community
Tata Consultancy Services
November 10, 2022
A cooperative principle is at the heart of Web3, the emerging iteration of the internet that uses decentralized technologies to build value in purpose-driven ecosystems with a range of participants from business, social, and public sectors.

But it’s more than an ethos. Web3 also provides the functional platform on which communities are built—an ideal operational mirror for the organizational structure of decentralized ecosystems.

We believe Web2 enterprises have two options: They can share proactively in the experience of shaping Web3’s final form—or they can wait and adapt reactively after their competitors have defined how the decentralized internet operates.
