The Knowledge Economy

It’s the first economy in the world. Knowledge and know-how exchanges precede objects and materials [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

What are the properties of the knowledge economy?
Knowledge is abundant and reproduces quickly, very quickly
The doubling curve of knowledge

Buckminster Fuller created the « knowledge multiplication curve ». He says that until the 1900s human knowledge doubled about every 100 years. At the end of the Second World War, knowledge doubled every 25 years. Today things are not as simple because several types of knowledge have different growth rates. For example, knowledge in nanotechnology doubles every 2 years and clinical knowledge every 18 months. In Myenne the knowledge of humans doubles every 13 months.

Exchanges are positive sum

In the material economy, when I give you something it no longer belongs to me
In the knowledge economy, when I give you knowledge or information, it still belongs to me

The exchanges are not linear

In the material economy, 1 apple + 1 apple = 2 apples
In the knowledge economy, 1 idea + 1 idea = 3 or more ideas! the association of ideas or knowledge gives rise to new ideas. The combination of knowledge will always be greater than their sum.

Exchanges are not instant

In the material economy, the acquisition of goods is fast. A few clicks on the web or a credit card pin code. It can be a compulsive act if you have the money to buy it.
In the knowledge economy, acquiring knowledge takes time and requires attention. Acquiring knowledge requires efforts of concentration and time. it is a deliberate act.
