Most existing networking platforms (eg Mighty Networks, Circle) make collaborating and sharing information with other networks extremely difficult. Other tools for managing networks such as WhatsApp or Slack result in communication that is either too frequent and public or too 'management-like' and difficult for all to access in a timely fashion. On top of this, each of our networks and organisations end up requiring our members and staff to sign up to multiple different platforms which makes life really challenging to #DoWith.
In our explorations we have found an exciting opportunity. Socialroots is a new platform being built for our context - research from 500 impact networks is directly feeding into its design.
Join #DoWith members Matt Bell of Plymouth Octopus and Will Nicholson of A Better Way to discuss some of the challenges of existing networking platforms and to learn about the technology needs for network collaboration from detailed research of over 500 impact networks conducted by Christina Bowen and Ana Jamborcic of Socialroots who will present their research findings on network dynamics and platform design.
The meeting will conclude with discussion of an exciting opportunity for 10 organisations/networks to get involved in a 6-month #DoWith project to build the movement through practical testing and developing of a #DoWith space within the new Socialroots online platform to enable us to better connect, share ideas and keep updated across our organisations.
