Title Key denominators of success in crowdsourced logistics
Year 2017
Published
Abstract Crowdsourcing is one of the most fundamental elements in so called sharing economy. This type of economy enables sharing of unused resources in the community, which is a key concept in Smart City initiatives. This paper focuses on the field of crowdsourced logistics, where many startups have emerged in the last years. Also companies, which provide other crowdsourced services, such as Uber, are often creating their logistics spin offs. However there is no well-known market leader yet. The aim of this paper is to find common key denominators of the most successful crowdsourced logistics companies. It should provide a lead to nascent companies and future research, where to pay attention. Crowdsourcing started to be studied after 2006 when the term was first used. Nowadays papers about this topic are appearing more frequently. However there has not been a clear comparison of crowdsourced logistics companies according to their revenues and raised funds. Such research can help future companies to identify the most important key features to cover.
