PopG's collaborating for productivity is also a 21st century IT and Internet deployment technology and methodology for the developing world's higher education institutions and from the universities in these countries a 24/7 collaborating for productivity type of SME (Small and Medium Enterprize) extension programme reaching beyond the universities. The SMEs would include all other levels of education as well as small and medium size businesses, plus government and non-government non-profit enterprize projects.

This higher education and SME extension programme is for collaborating within specific project sectors, as well as for collaborating across-sectors when there are common across-sector issues such as governance and financial sustainability. The developing country's entire education system and this SME methodology are Internet supported via PopTeambuilders from the desktops of "twinning" (matching) higher education institutions and their teacher training centers, their graduate schools, their research centers, their administrators, their educators and their students, plus the "twinning" of SMEs within this PopG university extension context of SMEs.

Local "in country" SME Centers could facilitate the "twinning" of this SME extension methodology from each "in-country" university into 24/7 collaborating for productivity for primary and secondary education, government, business, environment, agriculture, health, and other community projects. This SME concept is adding the 24/7 collaborating for productivity "twinning" technology to the Swedish International Development Agency's south-north partnership for mutual learning and capacity building that's fostered by its over 1,500 "twinning" partners in Sweden that are connected to Sida's overseas development work. Sida's says: "The aspiration is to make learning possible, not merely for individuals but for the entire organisation, in order to create sustainable effects. One way to achieve these effects is to ensure that contacts between the organisations take place at different levels in the hierarchy, in parallel and simultaneously." The PopG thought prompted here is that in addition to today's focus on lifelong education for the individual we could initiate a life long collaborating for productivity twinning for sustainable effects in the developing world.
