The purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss the topics of sharing economy and collaborative consumption (CC) within the domains of global entrepreneurial opportunities, strategic issues, and emerging online businesses. Both topics remain immensely rich and intertwined because of their interdisciplinary perspectives and multifaceted issues. The sharing economy and CC-based digital platforms clearly support and complement today’s business models, corporate expansion, and entrepreneurial growth. The sharing economy and CC models continue to grow yet can be disruptive in international entrepreneurship. The paper investigates the sharing economy as well as CC in ten sectors (73 firms) from the perspective of “commercial sharing systems” (Lamberton and Rose 2012, p. 109). Findings of the paper reveal that the two topics distinctly remain interconnected when dealing with their business models, entrepreneurial initiatives, and consumers in global markets. The work systematically lays the foundation for future research in the international entrepreneurship literature and its related areas. Companies that pursue the areas of sharing-based systems tend to be inherently innovative and venturesome in their business models and digital platforms. The paper also provides a research agenda and managerial implications of this timely discussion that continues to grow in international entrepreneurship.

本文的目的是分析和讨论全球创业机会、战略问题和新兴在线业务领域内的共享经济和协作消费（CC）主题。由于它们的跨学科视角和多方面的问题，这两个主题仍然非常丰富和交织在一起。共享经济和基于 CC 的数字平台显然支持和补充了当今的商业模式、企业扩张和创业成长。共享经济和 CC 模式继续发展，但可能会破坏国际创业。本文从“商业共享系统”的角度研究了 10 个行业（73 家公司）的共享经济和 CC（Lamberton 和 Rose 2012，第 109 页）。该论文的研究结果表明，在处理其商业模式、创业计划和全球市场的消费者时，这两个主题显然仍然相互关联。该工作系统地为国际创业文献及其相关领域的未来研究奠定了基础。追求基于共享的系统领域的公司往往在其商业模式和数字平台方面具有内在的创新性和冒险精神。该论文还提供了这一及时讨论的研究议程和管理意义，该讨论在国际创业中不断发展。该工作系统地为国际创业文献及其相关领域的未来研究奠定了基础。追求基于共享的系统领域的公司往往在其商业模式和数字平台方面具有内在的创新性和冒险精神。该论文还提供了这一及时讨论的研究议程和管理意义，该讨论在国际创业中不断发展。该工作系统地为国际创业文献及其相关领域的未来研究奠定了基础。追求基于共享的系统领域的公司往往在其商业模式和数字平台方面具有内在的创新性和冒险精神。该论文还提供了这一及时讨论的研究议程和管理意义，该讨论在国际创业中不断发展。
