NESTA hosted a fantastic two days of discussion and debate last week around Collaborative Consumption – the notion that traditional peer-to-peer sharing and bartering is now able to scale like never before, thanks to collaborative technology frameworks, with the potential to fundamentally change our economy.

Our MD Jonathan spoke at one of the sessions, specifically about building trust in local communities. You can watch the video of his talk above. Videos of all the talks are on NESTA’s vimeo page.

The movement has been championed by Rachel Botsman, an associate of Public Zone who has worked with us on a number of our projects.
