Mini-Track Title: Sharing Economy

Track: Virtual Communities and Collaboration


Mini-Track Description:

Sharing is ingrained in the fabric of society and efficient access to goods
and services constitutes a major force driving much of the economic
activity today. With greater connectivity brought about by the
proliferation of internetworking technologies, it has become much easier
for individuals to circumvent spatial and temporal barriers during
interactions, thereby giving rise to a novel Sharing Economy that is
structured around the disintermediation of conventional channels of
commerce in the exchange of both tangible and intangible resources. The
sharing economy has gained notable attention within mainstream media as a
new economic paradigm that leverages peer-to-peer technological platforms
to facilitate exchange of resources among individuals who are joined via
fluid relational networks.

This mini-track provides a forum for the exchange of research ideas and
business practices related to sharing economy. It aims to sensitize both
academics and practitioners to the latest trends and developments in the
sharing economy in order to determine how value can be created and
appropriated within this novel economic environment powered primarily by
technology.

*    Collaborative consumption and production in sharing economy
