Maturity of infrastructure.

Technical infrastructure...

Still a lot of this but we’re working on it...

Legal infrastructure...

We still have...

How do we embed values?

Is it a return to traditions?

http://www.flickr.com/photos/14947022@N06/5109533621 CC-BY

Or the growth of new ones?

Opening the gates?
