Summary/Abstract: The network enterprises have appeared after the industrial revolution, and they have been studied indeed as a revolution in doing business. With the rise of the new informational platforms, a new type of network enterprise has appeared: a more collaborative, efficient and fast moving one; and thus, network society was born. Since then, there have been recorded changes in the human society, from the human behaviour with regards to technology, to the business models, with regards to efficiency. This paper aims to reflect a model of the new network society, from a collaboration and communication point of view, as well as to emphasise the importance of adapting to the new network society requirements. After an overview of the conceptual terminology and the theoretical approach of both the network society and the network enterprise, the paper identifies five dimensions of the network enterprise that will be used to describe the enterprise of the present as it is now, as well as to suggesting improvements for the one of the future.
