What appetite exists for a world where there are no more non-fiction books, but non-fiction apps? CBC Radio’s Laura Di Battista discussed the idea with business thinker Don Tapscott, who’s just launched his latest venture, the Don Tapscott app.
Extended versions of Don’s interviews with LinkedIn’s Reid Hoffman, Zipcar and Buzzcar’s Robin Chase, Nike’s Vice President of Sustainability and Innovation, Hannah Jones, and GoodGuide’s Dara O’Rourke.
In episode four of ReCivilization, Don examines how the digital revolution has cut transaction costs and changed the notion of the firm, and how business needs to operate collaboratively and transparently — to meet the needs of increasingly savvy consumers concerned about sustainability and ethical behaviour. As Don says, the level of scrutiny made possible by the web means businesses operate nakedly. And if you’re going to be naked, you’d better be buff.

In episode two of ReCivilization, Don looks at the transformation of education and science, and how the sharing of knowledge is moving from the industrial-age model of a one-way broadcast from teacher to student to collaborative, discovery-driven learning, enabled by the web. He also examines a new model for science that favours open data over isolated, patent-driven research.
In the first installment of ReCivilization, Don looks at the reinventing media with Sir Tim Berners-Lee, Sue Gardner, Alan Rusbridger and Leo Laporte.
Join us on Sunday, January 22nd at 11am for our first episode! ReCivilization is a five-part series that examines some of the the biggest challenges facing our world.
