NUS Internship-As-A-Service (IAAS): The Future of Work with the Gig Economy
January 19, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
You have probably heard of the term “gig economy,” which refers to a growing trend of businesses and independent workers entering into short-term labour agreements.
In the gig economy, we often see digital platforms that connect freelancers with potential clients for short-term jobs, contracted work, or asset-sharing. It encompasses everything from private tuition to food delivery to freelance services like photography, graphic design, and IT support. Fiverr, TaskRabbit, and Handy are three well-known platforms where you can find business consultants, bloggers, social media specialists, and a variety of other freelancers.
This workshop will provide insights on what the gig economy is, why it may prove useful for you, and how you could participate in it.
