DEF

Pratique qui consiste à mettre en contact direct des fournisseurs de services et des clients, grâce aux nouvelles technologies et, plus précisément, aux plateformes numériques.

OBS

ubérisation : Le substantif «ubérisation» est formé à partir du nom de l'entreprise Uber [et] il est surtout employé en France. [Le terme] «plateformisation» convient mieux, car il s’agit d’un terme plus neutre[, sans connotation]. Il ne renvoie pas au nom d’une entreprise.

OBS

plateformisation : terme et définition entérinés par le Comité de terminologie de Radio-Canada.
