Lessons Learned:
Everywhere you look across business and culture
collaboration is the driving force
Uber and Airbnb are billion dollar companies invented through the model of sharing vs ownership. But companies like GE, Marriott and Nike are inventing their futures around the same principles ie GE Predix. Sharing is the ultimate currency of business today and is about way more than hailing a car or renting out a person’s home.
