Write a short opinion in your blog about the real applicability of nonmarket production and related strategies in your main field of activities (e.g. design, education etc)
Here was one idea form last year: http://birgyblogi.blogspot.com/2011/09/open-source-as-part-of-business.html
For me in the education
conferences, magazines, trainings etc. try to get business out of it.
Eg. a lot of things in locally is free. In the academic sense they
are worth nothing. At the same time there is a option to go to "have
a training" or other using academic money. This is truly needed,
as without it the scientist cannot work together and publish their
work.
At the same time, if you see the numbers (tickets, fees etc.) then it is really too much, so it is a good business to held a conference, training not only for advertising yourself, but to raise money. Very good example was a one company who claimed to have published a lot of articles for Estonian s, so universities can buy with a small amount of "fee" the right to have special and simple way to publish their things... almost all university’s leaders fell into a trap, not even doing a simple "search" is the offer real. And when it would be real, then.. they did not think that this science work would be compromised...
Similar scandal has exploded a month ago in Tartu University where some EU money was not very clearly spent as in news it was called "did a Galojan" - as to spend project money for their own things or luxury. So the non-market profit industries (education) are nowadays seeming to be promising for the crooks, so there is a way to make profit, as there is money what is loose there eg. some write articles or thesis for money etc.
But to make a real honest money the you would more think of selling services, selling your competences or name eg. when I am with your project then we usually get the EU funding or other:P
Today a bit con-mob-rob mode..
