Since the publication of Rachel Botsman book What’s Mine Is Yours: How Collaborative Consumption is Changing the Way We Live (Harper Collins 2010) and her internationally celebrated TED talks, we have been the leading thinkers and champions of the global sharing economy. Over the last few years, collaborative consumption has been recognized by influential thought leaders, major media outlets, businesses and governments as a space to watch in terms of its potential to positively impact the world. We have worked with companies and entrepreneurs across sectors and spoken at events on every continent (except Antarctica!). We have developed deep global expertise on key trends and best practices and offer clear insight into future challenges and opportunities. Here is a sample collection of our thought leadership.
