Description

Cat Johnson:

"Formed to connect people interested in the new, sharing economy, Sharers of San Francisco facilitates events, dinners and Meetups where participants can meet other sharing enthusiasts, learn from each other and make connections in the sharing movement.

“What's unique about the Sharers of San Francisco,” says Chelsea Rustrum, founder of the group and author of the forthcoming book, It’s a Shareable Life, “is that we get people together who enjoy sharing. These are the people that need to be talking: the P2P founders, Airbnb hosts, Couchsurfers, coworking mavens, car sharers and ride sharing advocates. We don't just get the peer-to-peer marketplace founders together for education chats,” she continues. “Instead, we invite users and founders to get together for largely unstructured events like Collaborative Happy Hours and Coworking Days...We get the right people talking and helping one another through conversations and potential collaborations.” (http://www.shareable.net/blog/the-rise-of-the-sharing-communities)
