Impressions of the event and an open group for insights, ideas and perspectives are accessible at emersense.ning

Enriching our current activities to nurture spark and intent for contribution, we are today launching emersense.ning – a new virtual space to support the journeys, ideas and connections of value-creators across the world. Creating new opportunities for individuals and communities to cultivate their dreams and enact their ideas, emersense.ning offers:

• Personal Space: Individual profiles and pages to integrate blogs, discussions, impressions, events, updates and many other customized applications.
• Common Space: Groups, forums and communities to exchange thoughts, collaborate on ideas, share reflections and build new connections within the virtual community.
• Opportunities & Impressions: Latest news and full coverage of diverse initiatives within emersense, constant information on possibilities to engage and participate.
• Knowledge & Inspiration: Access to learning materials and outputs of previous activities, contact points for open questions, and a shoebox filled with inspiration.

emersense.ning starts small, yet is ready to evolve. As emersense is growing, so will this virtual space. New features will be added, new opportunities be created – to leverage what is done and enable what can be done.

emersense.ning is ready… you are invited.
