Kollaborativ Ekonomi Sverige (Collaborative Economy Sweden)

The organization Collaborative Economy Sweden (KES) wants to make it easier to rent, share, borrow, give/receive instead of buying new. They advocate a fair distribution of resources that consumes less natural resources and wants to encourage a higher level of trust between people. The organization has, among other things, taken the initiative for the Smart Map, which is what you’re looking at right now, Global Sharing Week GBG and lending stickers.

KES runs various projects, such as site development at the Omställningslabbet (Transformation Lab) in Frihamnen and citizen research for the development of collaborative culture. As well as a calendar for all initiatives in Gothenburg.

KES also administers a Facebook group that serves as a platform and meeting place to discuss, inform and spread collaborative economy.

Here you will find collaborative events, local news, questions and thoughts, etc. If you want to talk to active member Robin, you can stop by for a coffee at his café and co-working space Llama Lloyd Omställningslabbet or our office at Järntorget.
