In this article, we describe the first application of the Keystone Off-The-Shelf (KOTS) platform.

From the Editor-in-Chief
The editorial theme for this issue of the OSBR is Collectives. We have invited authors from Carleton University and the Government of Canada’s Policy Research Initiative to contribute to this issue. I am pleased to welcome our Guest Editor Dr. Tony Bailetti, the Director of Carleton University’s Technology Innovation Management program.
The articles in this issue of the OSBR focus on collectives that harness diversity to produce significant system-level outcomes. These collectives support members that belong to different groups and carry out activities in three different horizons: today's business, the next generation of emerging businesses, and the longer-term options out of which the next generation of businesses will arise.
