the Network Society Program
The Network Society Program creates and sustains NTARI.org as a comprehensive digital platform serving as the Network Theory Applied Research Institute's primary online presence and operational hub. This program implements practical applications of network theory within its own structure while facilitating the Institute's broader mission to develop systems and protocols for online global cooperatives.
Forge Labs is NTARI's dedicated digital innovation unit that researches, develops, and implements open-source software applications aligned with network theory principles. The program operates as a practical testing ground for NTARI's theoretical frameworks by creating functional applications, deploying them in real-world markets through subordinate LLCs, and supporting remote communities through sustainable technology implementation.
