I’m starting a new company to help progressive corporations tap into the Collaborative Economy.
I’ll be leaving Altimeter in my current role, but will remain connected as I join Altimeter’s Board of Advisors.
One of the advantages of being an industry analyst is being able to see what’s coming in the future. To address this transformation, large corporations are going to need help to manage this radical market change. In the coming weeks, I’ll share my plans for this new venture.
It’s amazing to see four years at Altimeter Group go by so quickly. We’ve accomplished so much. The kickoff, our first conference, and the publication of Open Research reports, we have helped clients adopt disruptive technologies.
My business partner of four years, Charlene Li, has been very supportive of me in launching this next venture, and shares her thoughts. As I continue to support the firm, I’ll be finishing up specific client projects, and I’ll be joining Altimeter’s board of advisors where I’ll continue to support the firm.
Perhaps most important, I will continue my friendships with all the great folks at the firm that I care about so deeply. Altimeter clients will still be able to work with analysts like Charlene Li, Brian Solis, Susan Etlinger, Rebecca Lieb, and the growing consulting and research team.
I’d love to hear from you, contact me if you want to discuss this exciting new opportunity (or peruse my body of work) as progressive corporations tap the Collaborative Economy:
Sincerely, jeremiah@crowdcompanies.com
Best wishes – the Business models are changing and so are consumers. Go hard and enjoy yourself 🙂
fantastic! good luck. would love to connect to hear more.
You are perfect for this, much success.
Good Luck Jeremiah, looking forward to reading your upcoming research on the Collaborative Economy. Hope you cover industries that one would never expect to follow the CE business model–surprise us!
From our early conversations on this last month, you know how I feel. You are definitely on to something, the question is whether or not the corporations realize it fully. If you stay focused on the ones who understand the status quo is being turned on its head, and don’t try to convince the one’s who still question it, I think you will find great success. It’s easy to get trapped into needing to convince the ultimately unconvinceable, but stay with people who see the same or similar future as you do and I think you will find great success.
And keep telling great stories of great possibilities. I think the bottom line in all of this is ultimately that it is a more efficient system for everyone… As I’ve long said, this is still the unrealized promise of IT, to provide visibility into the market that affords us greater predictability and maximizes our utilization.
As long as we can still find a way to garner enough capital for the shared infrastructure needed to keep it working (ie, hoover dam commercial and similar on MSNBC). I still think one of the biggest infrastructure opportunity within the collaborative economy is the simplification for taxation systems in multi-jurisdictional complexity, particularly targeted at the end users. And for that, the ebay experience is very useful to learn from.
Good luck my friend, looking forward to sharing some parts of the journey with you.
It’s been a career highlight collaborating with you as an analyst at Altimeter, and I’m looking forward to finding more ways to work together going forward. Wishing you the very best of luck with the new venture, Jeremiah!

Congratulations, Jeremiah! Your embrace of the collaborative economy — personally and professionally — makes you well suited as a counselor to brands as they try to make sense of this economic shift.
I’m excited to see what you do with this; I’ve been enjoying reading your research and talking to you about this area over the last year.
Jeremiah, great move. You will do great and I look forward to working with you.
