passage 1

I’m frequently asked to define the Sharing Economy and decided it was high

time to pen the definitive answer. The Sharing Economy is a socio-economic

ecosystem built around the sharing of human, physical and intellectual

resources. It includes the shared creation, production, distribution, trade and

consumption of goods and services by different people and organizations.

People are at the heart of a Sharing Economy; it is a People’s Economy. The

participants of a Sharing Economy are individuals, communities, companies,

organizations and associations, all of whom are deeply embedded in a highly

efficient sharing system, to which all contribute and benefit from. These are

the most important features of a Sharing Economy.

In a Sharing Economy, production is open and accessible to those who wish to

produce. Internet technologies and networks enable the development of products

and services in a collective manner, transcending geographical boundaries. 3D

printing offers a more local production of goods, shortening supply chains and

increasing efficiency and access.

In a Sharing Economy, value is seen not purely as financial value, but wider

economic, environmental and social value. The Sharing Economy is based on both

material and non-material or social rewards and encourages the most efficient

use of resources.

Instead of being viewed as resource in the wrong place, waste has value. A

Sharing Economy enables ‘waste’ to be reallocated where it is needed and

valued. The system uses technology to re-distribute or trade unused or

‘sleeping’ assets, generating value for people, communities and companies.

Being a member of a car club, for example, and paying for what you use, is seen

as preferable and smarter than bearing the cost, burden, resource wastage and

idling capacity of ownership.

A Sharing Economy puts both people and planet at the heart of the economic

system. Value creation, production and distribution operate in harmony with the

available natural resources, not at the expense of the planet, promoting the

flourishing of human life within environmental limits. Environmental

responsibility, including the burdens of environmental damage, are shared;

among people, organizations, and national governments.

In a Sharing Economy, information and knowledge is shared, open and accessible.

Communications are distributed; knowledge and intelligence are widely

accessible, easily obtained and can be used by different individuals,

communities or organizations in different ways for different purposes.

Technology and social networks enable the flow of communications and support

the sharing of information. This system promotes easily accessible education of

a high level, enabling everyone to access the information, skills and tools

they need to succeed.

Whilst the Sharing Economy is currently in its infancy, this is only the

beginning. In its entirety and potential it is a new and alternative socio-

economic system which embeds sharing and collaboration at its heart – across

all aspects of social and economic life.

passage 2

Thank you all for being here tonight.

This evening is an opportunity for Britain and China to come together. A chance

to identify our shared ambitions, our mutual strengths and the opportunities we

have to work together to shape the future of global trade. But, first and

foremost, we are here tonight to celebrate the upcoming GREAT Festival of

Innovation. The festival, which will take place in March just a few miles away

in Hong Kong, will bring together some of the UK and Asia’s most pioneering

companies. It will be a gathering like no other - an opportunity to share

innovations that will drive the future of free trade and for businesses to

build lifelong partnerships. It is this spirit of friendship and commonality

that I wish to speak to you about tonight.

It is fitting that this evening we are gathered in Shenzhen, a city with

innovation in its DNA. Shenzhen, as the technological capital of China, is the

engine room that will power China in the age of the fourth industrial

revolution. In a matter of decades, Shenzhen has transformed from a small

fishing village into a dynamic and youthful city with a population of more than

11 million. Much of this success has been down to this city’s dynamism, and

its dedication to technical advancement.

With research and development investment accounting for 4% of GDP – double the

national average – and patent applications standing at the highest in China

for 10 consecutive years, it cannot be denied that we stand in a city that is

unapologetically focused on the future. Across this city, some of the world’s

most talented minds are coming together to design tomorrow’s technology.

Shenzhen is a world-leading producer of drones, electric cars and DNA
