No Foreseeable Risks?
Marc D. Bahlmann is working on his PhD. He is a student at the VU University Amsterdam and he contacted me because we wants to interview me about his study that “…considers the relationship between geographical co-location, knowledge sharing, and social networks, and specifically focuses on the so-called New Media-cluster in Amsterdam (The Netherlands)”.
