Increasingly, most companies have started collaborating with each other to succeed. Except those companies which are directly competing with each other, most other companies seem to have understood that by collaborating, there is a lot better chance of understanding the best technologies, the best way of operating in a market. Now, instead of competing, collaborating is the key step to success.

For example, IBM has created the IBM sponsored forum. This is clearly a forum where people collaborate with eachother and also get the chance of working with some of the best companies on the globe.
