There is increasing need of dialogue and new partnerships within each domain, for faster circular transition!

Within each domain of industries, systems, businesses and professions.

In today's highly specialized world, the way various industries, systems, businesses, and professions have been conceived and organised, they can continue their growth mostly without talking to or interacting to each other. Kind of specialization where roles and responsibilities are predefined, and, goals and objectives are highly aligned with specific sectoral trait, typology and needs.

This equilibrium of sectoral autonomy is a result of decades of industrial efficiency logic, where value chain has developed and matured, following path of the least friction. It is considered that if two traditionally independent systems or industries or businesses, pause and speak or interact with each other, it will result in inefficiencies due to lost time and money.

In the existing scheme of things this need of dialogue and new partnership is considered inefficient as it consumes time, and time is of essence here, which actually translates to money. So they prefer not to talk to each other, unless its imperative or binding, also thinking what's the need when individual value chain is in equilibrium, when there is comfort in autonomy and when there is security in specialization.

In this increasingly material and resource constraint world, yes there is urgent need of knowing each other, need of finding compatibility and complimentary strengths, need of sharing pain points and learning, need of talking to each other, increasing necessity of sub-disciplinary dialogue and interdisciplinary perspective to business, industries, professions and value chain.

This is also in line with the idea of industrial symbiosis and circular economy where waste of one industry becomes feed for another industry for instance. Likewise, systems which works towards standardization at conceptual, virtual and physical levels for interoperability. Similarly, resources which can be pooled, shared, loaned, exchanged, leased or traded among businesses. Also professional knowledge, best practices, learning which can be crystallized, and modularized for dissipation, transfer, and exchange.

How do we achieve this?

By acknowledging that there is need to pause, and rethink about having more dialogue for larger good and in turn for their own efficiency. By finding new forms of compatibility, interdependencies, and vlaue exchange. By aggregation and co-location of industries. By common database and dashboard of business needs. By agreeing on common definition of standardization within systems. By digitalization and open source structure of best practices, and more.
