Sharing Economy has been developing in the Baltics for the last 4 years and 2017 is looking very promising in terms of new legal regulations and overall growth. The region is attracting world-class businesses and becoming the birthplace of such. In 2015 based on the data of PwC and European Commission the industry generated a €28 billion turnover in Europe alone and a turnover of €570 billion is expected by 2025. By approaching talented minds in the region, «Startup Slalom+Garage48. Sharing Economy» will act as a mean to boost the movement increasing the momentum for the overall industry development and recognition.
