Underlying all these innovative strategies are new flows of information—flows that translate trust, access, and convenience into economic value. As entrepreneurs look for ways to capture this value in new products and services, local policymakers are grappling with implications for existing economic structures and proprietary interests, often stumbling over legacy barriers to adoption. One nation, however, is taking another tack. Ecuador is asking whether it's possible to scale the sharing economy to a national economic policy as an alternative path to development.
