The sharing economy, which finds its origins in co-operative movement, has succeeded in drawing the attention of a new generation looking for more meaningful ways to build community and connect with each other in the market place. New models of co-operative consumption (like car sharing and co-working spaces) will be profiled along with long established collaborative businesses (like credit unions and retails co-ops).
 
Come to Co-operative Consumption and the Rise of the Sharing Economy to share your experiences, learn about new models and explore opportunities to develop and support a sharing economy in Saskatchewan. This is a chance to exchange ideas and information between the legends of sharing and collaboration and the innovators and developers of Saskatchewan’s latest sharing economy initiatives.
