What’s a “network” on Xoolink? A recognized ecosystem — hub, incubator, accelerator, industry cluster, university, economic-development body… — that gathers organizations around a territory or a sector. A network is never a service provider inside a pack: it’s a rallying point, not a team member. How do I declare my organization belongs to a network? From your profile editor: add an affiliation, pick the network and the relation (incubatee, alumni, member, partner). You can declare several. It’s a declaration — the network’s manager can then confirm it from their own profile. “Declared” vs “confirmed” affiliation: what’s the difference? A DECLARED affiliation (one you set yourself) serves discovery: directory, map, expertise cloud. Only an affiliation CONFIRMED by the network counts for trust and for pack matching. And if you later change the relation or year of a confirmed affiliation, it goes back to “pending” — the network has to re-validate. Can I favor a pack from a specific network? Yes. From a network’s profile or the globe, “Compose an anchored team” opens the Blender in need mode with that network (and territory) as a preference: the AI favors its members at EQUAL relevance, but first covers the essential expertises and reaches elsewhere to fill the gaps. Never a walled garden. What’s the ecosystems map (the globe)? Another way to read the directory: a globe where each organization sits at its declared headquarters. You drill down Territory → network → organization → people. A persistent filter bar (territory, ecosystem role) stays visible, and clicking a territory opens a panel that sums it up. Does the globe geolocate me? No — never anyone’s real-time position. It only shows the headquarters declared by each organization and linked to a reference place. An organization with no declared place does not appear on the map: no location is invented. What’s the territorial panel for? When you click a territory, it paints its portrait: its recognized networks, the breakdown by role, the dominant capabilities, and the GAPS (expertises present elsewhere on the network but missing here). From there, one click composes a team anchored on that territory.
