# Network Effects

Network effects have been responsible for 70% of all the value created in technology since 1994. Founders who deeply understand how they work will be better positioned to build category-defining companies. Network effects are mechanisms in a business where every new user makes the product/service/experience more valuable to every other user. 

Network effects are important because they are the best form of defensibility, and thus value creation, in the digital world (the three other major defensibilities are brand, embedding, and scale). 

At Exponential Healthtech, we are aware of this issue, therefore we have created different types of network effects (Protocol, Personal Utility, Personal Network, Market Network, Hub-and-Spoke, Platform, Data, Social, Language, Belief, Bandwagon and Tribal) with a high density, effective retention, link strength, clustering coefficient, virality and digital health specialists with real identities, verifiable with their professional (LinkedIn, Twitter and Telegram), social (YouTube, Clubhouse and TikTok) and cryptographic (NFT and Wallets) profiles, to enhance business networks and collaboration synergies in e-health, generating trust, reputation, prestige and pride that facilitate the liquidity of transactions, exclusivity and belonging, which incentivizes further relationship-formation and sets off a virtuous cycle. 

Therefore, we invite you to join and enjoy these network effects with us, achieving the critical mass that will generate a positive global impact on health.
