AndriusKulikauskas October 12, 2009 15:57 CET MinciuSodas and WorkNets core competency is organizing global teams of self-directed workers who, as they work on their own projects, can build momentum in a strategic direction that our client values.

We're happy to work for all manner of clients on all kinds of projects.

We look especially for clients who might care about our strategic Endeavors, currently:

  • Organizing a HelpRoom
  • Developing open source textbooks
  • Clarifying and integrating dreams and values
  • Publishing ebooks for DVD players and other devices in local and regional languages.
