1. What makes sharing economy businesses replicable? Obviously, we don’t want to try to replicate a business that simply won’t.

2. Equally, what skills are needed to replicate a replicable business?

3. When we are thinking of building the open, sharing, P2P, collaborative, solidarity economy (as many of us aspire to), how do we distinguish those parts of the business ecosystem that would be better global, shared, unified; and which parts should be local or niche, and replicable?

My guess is that if we had answers to these, more people would be able to share progress in a positive direction.
