4. Collaborative Economy refers to business models where activities are facilitated by collaborative platforms that create an open marketplace for the temporary usage of goods or services often provided by private individuals. The collaborative economy involves three categories of actors: (i) service providers who share assets, resources, time and/or skills these can be private individuals offering services on an occasional basis ( peers ) or service providers acting in their professional capacity ("professional services providers"); (ii) users of these; and (iii) intermediaries that connect via an online platform providers with users and that facilitate transactions between them ( collaborative platforms ). Collaborative economy transactions generally do not involve a change of ownership and can be carried out for profit or not-for-profit.* * European Commission Communication on a European agenda for the collaborative economy 2016 (COM(2016) 356)
