As the ‘grandfather’ of collaborative consumption, eBay Inc has paved the way for how we use the internet to connect with strangers to match millions of ‘haves’ with millions of ‘wants’; ushering in an age of digital recommerce. The eBay Inc Social Innovation team is constantly exploring ways to measure the impact of this recommerce activity, as well as forging important partnerships that are changing the face of retail as we know it. Collaborative Lab was excited to work with eBay to capture a snapshot of their achievements over the last year into this infographic, and we look forward to seeing what they achieve by the end of 2013!

This is awesome!! I knew the global resale market was huge but $500B. I got into this space more for the positive impact on communities. Kiinzel is a local community marketplace for moms to buy, sell and swap in an easy, fun and safe environment. We’d love to be listed on your collcons directory!
Hi Marlina – glad you liked the infographic! We are updating the directory regularly and will let you know when Kiinzel is in there ?
