Lisa caught up with Tomas de Lara at the OuiShareFest in Paris in May 2015.

In this conversation Lisa learns how Tomas sees the worlds of business, community and the environment connecting and shaping our future.

Is the collaborative economy is growing up and entering its next phase?

What is the relationship between abundance and scarcity in this next phase?

Strong themes making this social innovation happen are the social web, peer based organisations, collaboration and education.

Tomas is a ‘netweaver’ and connects the many world changing projects he takes part in from his home in Brazil.

Lisa confronts that her age could be a barrier to being a global shaper and shares about scrambled eggs.
