Market Overview

The sharing economy in Italy, also known as the collaborative economy, refers to a system where individuals or businesses share access to goods or services, often facilitated by online platforms. This model allows consumers to rent, borrow, or share assets such as vehicles, homes, tools, or even time, rather than owning them outright. The sharing economy has grown rapidly in Italy due to its ability to offer consumers more flexibility, cost-efficiency, and sustainability. The government has recognized the potential of this sector, and initiatives such as incentives for electric vehicles and support for green mobility aim to foster the growth of eco-friendly services. Additionally, Italy has implemented regulations around short-term rentals and ride-sharing to balance innovation with consumer protection and urban planning.  With continued government support, particularly in the form of tax incentives and regulatory frameworks, the sharing economy in Italy is poised to expand, benefiting both consumers and businesses alike.
