Description

Shareable Salon Presents:

Building Trust & Limiting Risk in the Sharing Economy

Maintaining trust and safety is critical for businesses built on peer-to-peer exchanges. As the sharing economy grows, so does the importance of systems to verify user identity, build community, and otherwise support trust and safety. What tools are businesses developing today, and what trade-offs do they face when balancing security, privacy, growth, and community?

Join us at Couchsurfing International for the first Shareable Salon panel discussion with leading experts on trust and security in the sharing economy. Our panelists include:

  • Jennifer Billock, Director of Community, Couchsurfing International
  • Sonny Singh, VP of Sales & Business Development, Jumio
  • Phillip Cardenas, Trust and Safey Manager, Airbnb
  • Bogdan State, Ph.D candidate in Sociology at Stanford


Evening Agenda:

7:00 - 7:30: Reception - light food and drink will be provided

7:30 - 8:30: Panel discussion

8:30 - 9:00: Audience Q & A and closing reception, after party location TBD
