In the Öresunds region of Sweden, the region between Sweden and Denmark, there is a very exclusive industry collaboration platform that promotes innovations throughout the region. Its called Mobile Heights which was founded by the major telco companies in Sweden (TeliaSonera, Ericsson, Sony Ericsson, ST Ericsson) and the local governments. Its original aim is to establish Southern Sweden as an internationally leading region in research, innovation and entrepreneurship in mobile communications and its entire value chain in hardware, software and services.
This month Mobile Heights invited other companies to become members and in particular companies that compete with them, which is very interesting... and with the aim to increase innovations within the region. This is a very unusual but I believe is very good for the region and companies in the region. Collaboration between competitors create a healthy and innovative environmen. Now consider if you are not competing put purely collaborating.
