Abstract
In this paper authors describe the development of an emergent collaborative working environment - network Oasis - and the practical findings discovered during the Oasis development process. The findings of the project indicate strongly that there is a need for further research and development of tools, practices and methods in the field of collaborative networked organisations (CNO). The main findings: Network Incubation and Serendipity Management, are described, while they are some of the missing elements in traditional theories of Virtual Organisation Breeding Environments and Professional Virtual Communities.
