Jeremy Rifkin Quotes About Values

Quotes about: Values

• Companies that actually survive and flourish are going to change their business model from production to aggregating the networks and the network services and solutions.

• I think capitalism will not disappear, but it's going to increasingly not be the exclusive arbiter of economic life. It's going to have to find value in interacting with the sharing economy on many levels. And this hybrid system that's already emerging among millennials is going to be a mature system where, by midcentury, part of the day will be in the capitalist market, part of the day in the sharing economy, depending on your marginal costs.
