Terminology of Innovative Collaborative Knowledge Networks
COIN
Collaborative Innovation Networks (COIN) form from the interaction of like-minded, self-motivated individuals who share the same vision. An innovative idea is pushed forward by charismatic leaders, who assemble a group of highly motivated collaborators. These people join not for immediate monetary reward, but because they share a common vision, and want to be part of the innovation that “will change the world.”

Collaborative Interest Networks (CINs) are composed of people who have the same interests but don’t perform a common work in a virtual team; this kind of community is very frequent on the web, has a lot of silent members, who keep information from web sites, portals, forum, and a few active members who are inclined to share their knowledge and experiences within the community. The CIN is the diaphragm that separates and links the innovation to the real world.
