2nd edition. The gig economy lets individuals provide services, share resources, and sell goods to other individuals via online platforms. It has been ranked as one of the 10 most important ideas that is changing the world. Pioneered by Airbnb, eBay, and Uber, among others, the gig economy now includes hundreds of companies in the U.S. and has become a major business sector worldwide.
The $570 billion gig economy has eight segments: accommodations, delivery services, freelance services, online marketplaces, peer-to-peer lending, professional services, resource sharing, and ride sharing. The Gig Economy 2026 provides an assessment for each of these segments. Over 75 market leaders within these segments are profiled. Profiles are also provided for the publically traded corporations within the gig economy.
Dating only to the 1990s, the gig economy is the newest among major business sectors. Business opportunities abound. The Gig Economy 2026 guides the identification, analysis, and development of these opportunities.
