Results. To improve effi ciency, including using social networking, it is recommended to consider the advantages of decentralized and centralized networks, improving the sustainability of horizontal communication, transparency, access to resources, monitoring of “reliability ratings”, limiting the number of network members, the formation and development of “competence networks”. Network stability is maintained even in case of instability of its membership and transaction volume. Based on the comparative analysis of the models considered in the present research, the principles of formation and coordination of the organizational structure in the virtual space. Differences due to the specifi cs regarding the use of modern information and cognitive technology, the inner logic of action and the specifi c culture of communication in the network.
