The New Economy of Sharing | Thomas C. Knobel | TEDxBucharest
As income inequality is rising and connectivity becomes ubiquitous, Thomas realized that in today's world we have a paradoxical economic phenomenon, where billions of people work, contribute content and actions for free but very few reap massive economic gain. He calls this system "Freeism", where a person’s actions on the internet create economic gain that benefits the few, thus having a built-in income inequality component. In 2009, Thomas had a vision of a much fairer economy, based on sharing, where if someone contributes and value is created, then members receive something in return. This way sharing becomes true sharing. He calls this new economic system "Wowism, where the majority of economic gain is shared with the community and the community can share in turn to do good in the world. To put Wowism in practice, he started building WowApp, launched in 2015 and with over 1 million users already, which basically shares more than 70% of its own revenue margin with its members.
Born in Switzerland, Thomas founded his first company at age 7, a fresh food delivery business. His inherent entrepreneurial spirit has led him to start several businesses throughout his life, currently on three continents. Today, Thomas is working on his most special project of all time, a project with big ambitions to reinvent the world economy and doing good in the world through the power of connections and sharing. The new project called WowApp has been officially launched in October 2015.

I am using WowApp everyday and I'm loving it
I am from Kerala, India. I started using wowapp from two days ago. Its very interesting.Within two days I made a network of 23 members. Some of my friends have more than 1000 connections under them. But some of the Samsung mobiles are getting very slow after installing. Please find a solution for that. Thank you very much for giving such a wonderful app.
Thanks Mr Thomas for this opportunity!!
You are a great man
AWESOME ...... WOW !
Inspirational and desirable!

Idle resources are the key to a sustainable future. We need to have this balance, protect the true essence.

I just hope and wish that you market this platform more. It has been roughly 4 years and yet WowApp is not that well known yet. Please change your marketing strategy so your platform will reach more people. Regardless, I still love this app and still using it. 😊
I support wowapp

Ya, very nice idea. Unlike facebook, only zuckerberg earns from ads generated from members content....
I am the member of Wow but here people are complaining about earning very slow in fact it seem so. To become bigger and more succesfull I suggest to upload some work to WOW app so that people earn money worth of effort. So that they dont wait for their network actions to earn...
Here Uae not getting wowapp 😒
this was 2016..today is over 4.1 Billion internet users, 7.65 Billions population .......
Que Bella Ideia WOWAPP

if all use the wowapp of this world getting closer tersa between fellow human beings in the world... wowapp is a different from the ordinary whatsapp we already know, but it can turn you into a billionaire with a community that you build maximally I strongly agree as with the development of wowapp will make us more different from others
Мне нравится!
OKE SAYA COBA GABUNG DI WOWAPP
como faço ganhá dinheiro mesmo
Another model that involves money. "Sharing economy" can be exploitative to their volunteers, or workers. Many workers have to work several jobs in this economy to make enough to survive. Not relying on your tax money, money from government funded charity organization and money donation from people is the real sustainable movement: unlike some of these models under "sharing economy" that rent something in exchange for your money is just another profitable form of capitalism in disguise. Do some research on who they took from to start their company before your support.
