In this Project Onboarding conversation for Coherence 2025, Alex Lion Yes! (PREBRANDING) welcomes Ed Hwang (q1 Network) for a dynamic exchange on venture ecosystems, collaborative intelligence, and designing digital infrastructure for regenerative entrepreneurship.Ed shares how q1 (Quorum One) is evolving as a venture ecosystem: a purpose-driven “mall” where teams, guilds, and startups co-create under a shared vision of fairness, experimentation, and co-stewardship. Together, they explore how AI, media, and culture are reshaping how we work, collaborate, and build meaningfully across networks.Key topics explored: 🔹 q1 Network as a venture ecosystem: sandboxing regenerative entrepreneurship 🔹 Guilds, projects, and emergent community infrastructure for collaborative value creation 🔹 Navigating the tension between structure and emergence in digital organizing 🔹 Using AI for ethical practice, relationship building, and peer learning 🔹 Social networks with purpose: connecting through curiosity, not extraction 🔹 Conscious collaboration as a living practice, not a static structure 🔹 How media and storytelling are now integral to the new digital workplace 🔹 The importance of direct human connection in building trusted digital communities 🔹 Legacy building through distributed empowerment and co-creationThis is a generous and grounded conversation that shows how aligned people, tools, and intention can coalesce into something much greater than the sum of its parts.✨ For founders, venture catalysts, community weavers, and technologists — this is a grounded invitation to redesign the social fabric of work.🔹 Coherence 2025: https://coherence.tv/🔹 q1 Network: https://q1.is/🔹 Ed Hwang: https://www.linkedin.com/in/edjhwang/🔹 Alex Lion Yes!: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aleksandra-lewtak🔹 PREBRANDING: https://www.prebranding.wtf
