“the task is not so much to see what no one yet has seen but to think what nobody yet has thought about that which everybody sees.”
Geoff Mulgan, Big Mind: How Collective Intelligence Can Change Our World

“Forty percent of our social interactions happen with 5 other people, and 60 percent with only 15 others. It’s hard to have a sustained conversation with more than 4 people. It’s hard for an intensely committed group to be much more than 12 in number. And somewhere around 150 is a typical upper size for a close-knit community.”
Geoff Mulgan, Big Mind: How Collective Intelligence Can Change Our World

“at a societal level there is a surprising shortage of institutions designed to judge what really works and which ideas deserve to be backed with resources. Markets play this role for commercial ideas. But ideas that could be socially valuable often struggle to find support, even when there is strong evidence that they work.”
Geoff Mulgan, Big Mind: How Collective Intelligence Can Change Our World
