Nic Brisbourne of Esprit Capital Partners blogging as Equity Kicker reported the raising of capital to buy a football club. Bravo! I will be watching closely!
UPDATE: This collaborative venture in football ownership seems to be going well!
UPDATE: 03 July 2010. With Clay Shirky’s book on Cognitive Surplus about to come out, and the British governments experiments in crowd-sourcing, we will see renewed interest in people-driven ventures mediated online.
The big question is whether business has the imagination to go this route or whether they will remain locked in to models of secrecy.
