Prof. Arun Sundararajan discusses government regulation of sharing economy companies in New York City
—
Excerpt from The Epoch Times -- "To a consumer who couldn’t hail a cab from his phone before 2013, regulatory change is moving at a glacial pace. But it’s to the credit of sharing companies that sometimes inherently provide services that go against existing laws that better business environments are being created, according to Sundararajan. 'The specification of different areas … complicates this for the startups that have to fight city by city, state by state, country by country, widely varying levels,' Sundararajan said. 'It’s very interesting to me how much of the venture capital is being spent on regulatory reform.'"
