NEW WORLD WITHOUT STRANGERS
The new collaborative economy explained by Henry Golding (''Crazy Rich Asians'')
Synopsis
The concept of sharing within communities isn’t something new. In fact, it goes back thousands of years, to a time when people didn’t really have much. Nowadays, this notion has made a comeback but with a twist. Welcome to the age of the "collaborative economy”.
It’s an ecosystem built upon the partaking of human and physical resources. At its heart is a marketplace for the exchange of ideas, experiences, used goods, underutilized spaces, and so on. It's a far-reaching movement that impacts human relationships, notions of ownership, and, more importantly, our lives in general.
Our host, Henry Golding, embarks on a journey across 3 Asian countries to discover how the collaborative economy has transformed the way people shop, meet, eat, sleep, and even relate to one another.
