ExO\u2019s apply at least 4 out of the 10 ExO attributes &#8211; 5 external : Staff on Demand, Community and Crowd, Leveraged Assets, Algorithms &amp; Engagement (SCALE). 5 internal mechanisms &#8211; Interfaces, Dashboards, Experimentation, Autonomy and Social Technologies (IDEAS). MTP+SCALE+IDEAS = ExO. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.  An ExO is a permanent state unlike \u201cStartup\u201d- which is essentially a launch state and transient with growth.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Powerful thoughts.
