You need to be naive enough to do things differently.

However, we thought of Business Model Generation as a product, not just a book - similar to Apple products.
Modi Model of Development is more a hype than reality, and the Congress has always stood for inclusive development.

I remembered staffing a volunteer table for ACT UP in San Francisco's Castro neighborhood in 1991, on the corner of Castro and 18th Street, and on my table were posters, stickers, and t-shirts that bore the same slogan in all caps - ACT UP slogan house style. I wore one of those shirts to model for passers-by.

A new DAO is like a startup. It requires a product/market fit, business model realization, and a lot of users/customers.

I'm not a model, I'm an artist. In one of my videos, I'm doing this shot of me with no make-up on where I've just woken up, and I don't think a lot of people would be comfortable enough to do that.
