The sharing economy, collaborative consumption, on-demand access... it goes by many names, all equally buzzed-about.

Are you familiar with AirBnB, Lyft, Etsy or Rent the Runway? These are all examples of the collaborative economy, a fast-growing market fueled by social technologies, defined by people buying, selling and sharing products amongst each other.
