Talking short term rentals and co-working with Transparent and Coworkintel

We spoke to Pierre Becerril of Transparent (a data company for the Airbnb short term rental sector) and Ben Tannenbaum of Coworkintel (Transparent’s sister company for the co-working sector) about what their companies do in these two areas that have seen a lot of growth recently, how they acquire data, attitudes in these sectors towards data collection and what scope there is for private data companies to work with governments.
