Abstract
A computer scans user data for upcoming events and identifies a potential gift giving event from these events using contextual information about the events to determine the events' nature. The computer identifies a plurality of event attendees and analyzes information about two or more of the event attendees. The computer groups a plurality of people into a group of potential gift collaborators, wherein the plurality of people is chosen from the plurality of attendees. The computer generates a first potential gift list. The computer analyzes gift giving abilities of the group members and selects, based partially upon the analysis, a gift giver. The computer generates a second potential gift list with detailed information about one or more potential gifts wherein the gifts are based partially on the first potential gift list. The computer provides at least a portion of the second potential gift list to the selected gift giver.
