LONDON, May 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sharing economy is an economic system in which private individuals share assets and services, either free or for a charge, often using a community-based online platform. The sharing economy has enjoyed a rapid rise, particularly over the last decade. It has penetrated most industries, facilitated by improvements in the performance of digital platforms and consumers’ increasing willingness to use mobile apps that support peer-to-peer business models. Companies are now using GPS, data analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI) to connect consumers with owners in real-time. GlobalData expects the popularity of the sharing economy model to fuel revenue growth across several markets, including shared mobility, shared property, shared consumer goods, and shared financials.
