The future of transportation, brick-and-mortar retail spaces and the idea of ownership are some of the ideas that continue to be refined within the top June 2018 new ventures.
Many young consumers are powering the P2P economy, which largely allows consumers to make the most of temporary ownership only when the desired item is needed. Some of the new ventures that are emerging as innovators in this space include Feather and its furniture subscription service, as well as a new concept from one of the pioneers of the sharing economy—Uber eVTOL, or Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing vehicle.
As consumers no longer shop or consume food in the same way as a decade ago, Chipotle is recognizing this by implementing new drive-thru systems that exclusively serve as mobile order pickup lanes.
