Just been looking at establishing local economic networks, referring people to Richard Normann's work and how to diagnose, with key stakeholders, how the different elements fit/work/interact together, how to build in feedback loops and build a learning culture.

We will be in-touch through the Dutch side of our organisation working in to the complexity (and complications noting James' points below) of doing business, developing social enterprises, in Somaliland, the greater Horn of Africa.
