The “Sharing Economy” is not new – hundreds of years ago humans had systems of bartering and trading; now we have Etsy and HomeAway, and the ability to find exactly what we want or create exactly what someone else wants.
This economic model is here to stay, so what is next? And how does digital play a role? Can anyone be a “micropreneur” these days? How does this impact business models for Fortune 500 companies.
