Numerous report explain how most companies won’t #succeed unless they understand the drivers behind the #success of the new #sharing economy. It suggests that these core drivers are: Jeremiah Owyang co-authoring the report - Less #buying and more sharing requires companies to shift away from measuring success in terms of units sold as opposed to units used. As you can imagine, this marks a substantial shift in business model for many companies. - Less consuming and more producing sees a clear alignment with the growth of the maker movement that is only going to be accentuated by the rise of #3D printing. Companies such as Threadless are already thriving by providing a marketplace for #customer designed products. This will be a natural extension of that. - Less working and more #freelancing is likely to see the Free Agent Nation finally emerge as a more substantial movement. This provides a new environment, not only for sourcing #talent, but also changes the #competitive environment, with rivals increasingly coming from #talented #freelancers. - Less #regulation and more risk will see some governments attempt to get to grips with the new environment as much as companies will.
