Abstract: Abstract Mobility is necessary to participate on day-to-day life, but comes along with negative implications on our environment. A change in our mobility behavior caused by the growing digitalization and arise of new mobility services is essential to reduce the environmental impact of our mobility. To achieve such goal, new services with a strengthened competition has to be established. In addition, sharing of workforce and operating supplies between companies are addressed to adopt new business models. B2B sharing, including occasional workers, has huge potential to generate new services and business models, especially in the service sector. The described approach of a mobility broker provides such a tool for sharing between businesses, but also between businesses and occasional working persons in the field of mobility services.
