The Collaborative Economy: How to regulate and stimulate a new economic paradigm
The event begins with a presentation by the European Commission of its work in this field. There will also be a plenary session where Belgian federal government departments present their approaches.
Three workshops will examine the role of online platforms as catalysts for the collaborative economy, the social aspects, and the experiences of actors in this new economy.
Background
Every day entrepreneurs create new collaborative solutions to address ecological and socio-economic challenges. Through co-working, cooperatives, fablabs and crowdfunding platforms, new economic activities are created thanks to the collaborative economy.
The solutions and activities created have a wide impact on things such as consumption, production, financing and knowledge.
