Abstract
In this article we describe an integrated view on knowledge management and networking being a very powerful combination for the future of knowledge management. We start by giving an overview of the increasing importance of networks in the modern economy. Subsequently, we conceptualize a Network perspective on knowledge management. Therefore we firstly give a theoretical foundation on networks, and secondly explain the interdependences between networks and knowledge management. These reflection lead to the development of a framework for knowledge networking, where we distinguish between a micro-perspective and a macro-perspective. Finally, we develop a draft framework for knowledge networking which can be used as a basis in order to structure and reveal interdependences and illustrate it using real-life cases. We conclude by giving some implications for management and future research.
