“open source” software and coops, emerges to offer a solution.

must adopt –mainstreaming the movement

Editor's Notes
I’m jereimah, founder of crowd companies
I’m about to tell you why year 2015 will be the year of the crowd,
In nature, honeycombs are natures perfect geometric structures.
There’s no waste between the cells and they can take a lot of weight –they’re efficient and resilient
When many individuals come together, they can produce goodness for all.
What a great metaphor for the collaborative economy

This honeycomb, is OUR honeycomb
It shows how we can get what we need from each other
Let’s take a quick tour, starting with Goods on the upper right:
Goods that are created by makers, loaner products, and selling of used goods
Food like Fesatly, where home kitchens become restaurants to strangers
Services like Taskrabbit or Odesk –an on demand workforce
Transportation like BlaBla Car and Lyft
Space, like Airbnb
And money: The crowd has created a currency (bitcion) , offers P2P lending and finally crowdfundng which fuels the maker movement –connecting the diagram back to the top.

That was then, now let’s see how it’s grown

That was then, now let’s see how it’s grown
“But now, it’s expanding“:
Into six new areas:
Healthcare
Logistics
Corporate
Utilities
Municipalities
And even learning
Cohealo is Airbnb for Hotels
Stat is the Uber of doctors
The crowd can delivery your groceries from Instacart
City sellers You can store your stuff at your neighbors house on Roost
Near-Me enables companies to create their own marketplaces –so customers and employees can share resources among each other
TwoGo enables corporations to help their own employees carpool to work
Wifi is being shared with FON here in Europe
and Firechat was played a key role in enabling P2P communication when the internet was turned off at protesters
Vandebron in Netherlands is an early player in P2P energy sharing
Even cities are impacted, in Municipalities
Cities are sharing tractors and street sweepers with each other in MuniRent instead of buying anew
Instead of police, individuals can order on demand safety as a service with Mustakteeer and Bannerman
Lastly, Even learning institutions are impacted as people shift
Khan Academy is a free online university
And there’s many p2P learning platforms like Skillshare and Maven
Let’s bring it together.
The collaborative economy impacts all areas of society.
Furthermore the movement has been funded over 8 billion –with no signs of slowing
For comparison ,popular social networks have been funded 5.4 b
Most funding is in the transportation sector.
Money, Space, quickly follow.
And you can see why the transpiration space has been so severely disrupted
Here’s the headlines from SFGate
These graphs speak for themselves….
Corporations aren’t standing by the wayside, they’re actively launching their own or partnering with startups
Yes, big corporations are learning how to share.
In fact, my company, Crowd Companies is a council for these big corporations to come together to learn from each other –industry experts –and startups
Launched one year ago, here at LeWeb
Now, 48 Corporations
100% member growth
We’re accelerating European expansion
Startups to appear in every hex –funding and execution dictate winners
APIS come, which spur analytics and suites
A global debate on: Safety, Privacy, and Data Sharing will wage
Crowd demands Open Software and Coop sharing
The incumbents increase adoption –mainstreaming the movement.
Honeycombs provide a great deal of sweet gooeyness
But expect tough sticky situations to emerge,
This is why 2015 will be THE year of the corwd.
