See: http://r.vresp.com/?KMCluster/cb3043f7f2/464838/4041b7327b/8153554 Top knowledge scientists, information market practitioners, business school professors, think tanks, KM visionaries and prediction market tool providers are converging for an important, one-day Prediction Markets Summit in New York City on the future of Prediction Markets.

For example, top firms using prediction markets are Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft, Eli Lilly, Abbott Laboratories, Intel and Siemens. At the World Economic Forum in Davos knowledge markets will be applied. Of course prediction markets have been used for decades to forecast, with uncanny accuracy, the outcome of popular elections.
