📢 Exciting News! Our upcoming Late-Breaking Work publication is to come at ACM CHI Conference next week. 🚀

🌍🔍The paper, titled “This Could Be The Day I Die”: Unpacking Interpersonal and Systems Trust in a Local Sharing Economy Community,” co-authored by Anton Fedosov, Sina Krumhard, and Elaine M. Huang, delves into the importance of trust in the sharing economy and provides valuable insights for designing sharing platforms. We’ve partnered with a local sharing community Sharely and the Swiss railway operator SBB CFF FFS to conduct this in-depth qualitative study.

🤝💻Our findings highlight the nuances of interpersonal trust within community-based sharing platforms and how systems trust influences the adoption of supporting technologies.
