[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

How can we bring the new sharing economy (think Uber, Airbnb) to Bendigo AND keep the ownership local?

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

The bHive cooperative will enable local Bendigo entrepreneurs to create businesses or applications that allow us all to share access to goods, services, time, skills, learning, cars, bikes, knowledge, food, energy and more.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

The best part? Your data is owned by you and your neighbours, and profit are reinvested back into the local economy.

The digital Villages platform connects neighbours together across Greater Bendigo. It’s a great way to run events, communicate with each other and share free stuff, skills, and time.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

You can then add your friends from across Bendigo. These people will see your posts, shared items and events and you will see theirs.

What if the drivers owned the lifts app?
What if the local community owned the car sharing app?

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

Digital apps for car sharing, homes, lifts, and deliveries have allowed us to access the stuff we want when we want it. But they have often come at the cost of local jobs and work conditions.

The bHive vision is to help us own our local online sharing economy together.

#ShareEconomy

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

We will achieve this by creating an epidemic of Belonging, determining our own priorities, building local sharing enterprises, creating meaningful work, localising spending, controlling our online footprint and future, as well as creating community wealth.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

The bHive mission is to create a digital platform that allows Bendigo people to create, own and run sharing enterprises, providing access to shared local goods and services.
Be part of the bHive revolution, it starts with you.

#ItStartsWithYou

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

This is true economic development: combining local digital technology with local enterprise that creates work, wealth, and ownership. bHive is what a smart city can be!

https://t.co/tY9FQ4GTFG

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

The Village’s platform can lead to local jobs creation, new local circular economy enterprises and local spending. Together we can determine our own community priorities and build local car, energy, and food sharing services.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

Villages also allows you to create or join communities of interest across town to build an audience, collaborate with others and hold events. Have an idea for the local sharing economy? Create a community, find the others, and get going!

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

Villages connects you with neighbours and friends to communicate, share access to stuff and skills, collaborate and hold local events. It builds belonging. You’re in charge in your own Village.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

You can borrow power tools ($200), bikes ($1000), ladders ($250), board games ($60), books ($20), camping gear ($100s) and more.

If you’re active on Villages, you can easily save a thousand dollars a year.

[bHive Bendigo @bHivecoop]

If you borrow a wheelbarrow from a neighbour on Villages, you’re saving $200 on the cost of buying one. If you’re cooking dinner & ask your Village for a chilli you save $5.
