Value Network Clusters

Federated Action/Research Networks

The Value Network Clusters are open, federated action/research networks. The scope is global. The focus is local. Cluster event gatherings are conducted and sponsored on a regional basis. The modality is authentic conversation. They are held quarterly and sustain community, rhythm & continuity. Clusters are 100% led by participants. Regional sponsors vary from quarter to quarter. Governance originates from the network only. Above all, Clusters have the highest standards for venues, speakers, meals, participants and thought leadership. The modest participant sponsorship nourishes the network and provides sustainability, independence, rhythm and continuity. All are welcome.

The Age of Network Intelligence

ValueNetworks.com

 

Thanks to all that have registered for Enterprise Value Networks: The Age of Network Intelligence, on 22 Sept 2008 at The Boeing Company, Washington, D.C. Operations, in Arlington, VA. As usual, it is good to register early to guarantee your cluster spot. Seats are limited and they fill-up fast.

This special cluster and open community event will include the public debut of the popular ValueNetworks.com Value Network Analysis (VNA) application offering. The preview application subscriptions have been very popular with friends, family and the VN Google Group.

It is now time to bring the VNA Application, the Help System Fieldbook and Services forward to the world to meet the enormous demand for comprehensive and easy-to-use social, organizational and value network analysis. See here.

Mark Bolgiano, President and CEO, XBRL US will join and address your VN Cluster. The growth and capability of XBRL has been astonishing! As was widely anticipated, on May 14, 2008, the SEC mandated the biggest change to financial reporting since the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

Starting in early 2009, the largest public companies in the United States must submit financials using eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL). All remaining public companies must submit by 2011. This surprisingly aggressive timeline means all public companies need to act quickly to tag their financial data from among the 15,000 available terms in the XBRL taxonomy of US GAAP.

Why is this SEC mandate so important to the value networks and VNA community? It because there exists concurrent activities to develop XBRL tags for intangibles, in addition to the routine GAAP tangibles. This is among the most important initiatives to financial reporting methods. Specifically, XBRL intangibles embedded in emergent networks are seen as a principal method to correct the corrupt financial reporting mess that led to stunning, widespread accounting scandals (like Enron) earlier in the decade.

For example, a thorough value network analysis of the 10K (annual report) and 10Q, including intangibles, could be a major mechanism to assure transparency, reliability, authenticity and authority of corporate financial reporting. VNA is especially important for the ‘network narrative’ portion of the 10K, otherwise known as the ‘Management Discussion and Analysis’ (MD&A).    

Like the ‘SarBox’ compliance revolution, there are enormous deals in the XBRL space. It will drive billions in new business for expertise, applications, technologies and capabilities. Good to be aware and fluent in the details of this gigantic change.

Mark joins an impressive VN Cluster lineup for you. Review the agenda, register here –
