‘‘Collaborative consumption (or the sharing economy) is an economic model which encourages the use of ownership and allows you to optimise resources through the sharing,
bartering, reselling, renting, lending or gifting of goods and services.’’
Rachel Botsman (2010)
‘‘The sharing economy refers to economic practices and models which have been organisedthrough a network or user communities.’’

nB: In principle, this definition excludes B2C systems such as Autolib, but for the sake of completeness, they will be repre-sented in another colour: red.

HYpotHesis oF sHarevolution’s proJect scope
shaREvolution has built on these definitions but defined a scope in their own study based on several theories:

4 main moDels
ProdUCT - ServiCeS(PRODUCt-SERVICE SYStEM)
rediSTribUTion P2P ServiCeS “On-DEMAnD”
LoCAL Co-oP SYSTeMS
Design by Collectif Bam
These systems organise the transfer of ownership (or “re-use”) of goods between individuals whether the object has been (re)sold, swapped or given away, generally on a digital platform. It is the oldest collaborative consumption model which is based on “C2C” pioneers (eBay, Priceminister, followed by LeBonCoin) and classified ads websites (Craigslist, Freecycle)
nB: We can also include the P2P selling of “handmade” items (like Etsy) in this category
c2c re-selling of second-hand goods• generalist (e.g: LeBonCoin, eBay)• specialist (e.g: Videdressing,
monExTel)
c2c selling of “handmade” goods• e.g: Etsy, aLittlemarket
Giving away second-hand goods• e.g: Recupe.net, Freecycle
exchanging second-hand goods• generalist (e.g: myRecyclestuff)• specialist (e.g: Pretachanger)
reDistribution
material assets
Design by Collectif Bam
These systems allow you to access a physical resource (property, vehicle, area) exchanged between individuals without a transfer of ownership (renting, loaning, sharing). The systems embody the famous adage “access over ownership” and are the P2P extension of a product-service system / access, which often tends to be found in B2C.
nB: some collaborative consumption definitions (which focus on “sharing” rather than “collaboration”) include the B2C mo-dels as presented below:
p2p renting of goods• generalist (e.g: Zilok, Placedelaloc)• specialist (e.g: Bricolib, RentezVous)
p2p lending of goods:• (e.g:shareVoisins, Peerby)
b2c renting (e.g: Pley, Kiloutou)b2c lending of goods (e.g: ToolPool)
p2p vehicles rentals• with exchange of keys (e.g: drivy)• with a box (e.g: Koolicar)• at airports (e.g: Flightcar,
EasyCarClub)
carsharing and bike sharing [b2c]
p2p accommodation rentals• P2P short-term rental (e.g: Airbnb)• Home exchange (e.g: GuestToGuest)• Couchsurfing (e.g: couchsurfing.org)
shared working space• Co-working spaces (e.g: Copass)• Office rental between companies
(e.g: BureauxAPartager)• meeting areas (e.g: Breather)
other types of spaces• P2P storage system (e.g: Jestocke)• P2P parking (e.g: JustPark)• Event spaces (e.g: snap Event)

Here, the purpose of exchange is a service and no longer a material resource like the first two categories. Individuals who would like a service (transport, cleaning, dIy, dry cleaning etc.) are connected to others who are offering, in most cases, their “labour power “ via a mobile app. Excluding “experiences/lessons” and traditional carpooling (which involves sharing fees and optimising excess capacity), it’s a far cry from the “sharing economy” : it’s the “on-demand economy”.
Generalist (e.g: stootie, Taskrabbit)cleaning & maintenance (e.g: Helpling)Dry cleaning & laundry (e.g: Washio)petsitting (e.g: dogVacances)safety (e.g: musketeer)…
traditional carpooling• long distance (e.g: BlaBlaCar)• home to work (e.g: Idvroom,
Wedrive)
“real time” carpooling• P2P Taxi (e.g: uber, Private
Chauffeur)• “urban” ride-sharing (e.g: Lyft,
djump)
p2p coaching (e.g: Vint, Helparound)Doctors on-Demand (e.g: Tripmd)
p2p tour guides (e.g: Vayable)co-travelling (ex: Tripnco)one-to-one lessons (e.g: Livementor)
p2p delivery• urban areas (e.g: Instacart,
TokTokTok)• long distance (e.g: nimber,
mmmule)
p2p cooking and ready-made meals• takeaway (e.g: supermarmite)• meals-on-wheels (e.g: munchery)• on-demand chef (e.g: La Belle
Assiette)

This final category, often overlooked in English writings, groups together local practices based on the co-operation or grouping together of members of a network. many of them involve “low digital participation”. They can particularly be found in short food supply chains, time banking etc.
co-housing (or housing co-ops)Flat sharing with like-minded people (e.g: auTroisieme)
«Farm-to-table» • AmAP, La Ruche Qui dit Oui• Food co-ops (e.g: La Louve)
p2p agriculture• urban agriculture, shared gardens,
...• shared vegetable patches (e.g:
Plantezcheznous)
renewable energy• P2P energy supply (e.g: Vandebron)• Crowdfunding of renewable energy
(e.g: Energie Partagée)
telecommunications• Wifi sharing (e.g: Wifis.org, Fon)• mesh network (e.g: Freifunk, Guifi,
Firechat)

several players position themselves as third-party service providers in collaborative consumption, whether they are targeting individuals (to manage shared apartments) or the platforms themselves (as trust engines , payment gateways, logistics engines, or even as fully customisable marketplace platforms).

Finally, collaborative consumption models also apply to a B2B logic of optimising excess capacity or accessing resources (property, merchandise, vehicles) or even swapping employees between companies for specific tasks.

The economic collaborative consumption models can be analysed according to a certain number of primary or secondary criteria.
