| Lernziele | Of the ten largest companies in the world in terms of market capitalization, seven are platform organizations. Quite a few of these companies have become so large within a short space of time that they can be described as de facto monopolies, at least within submarkets. Students should learn how the phenomenon of platform organizations can be explained in economic terms and how some platform organizations were able to achieve a market-dominating position in such a short time. Students should become familiar with the specific competitive advantages of platform organizations (e.g. zero marginal costs of production, network effects) as well as their most important corporate, competitive and pricing strategies. Finally, the necessity of regulating platform organizations to ensure fair competition will be discussed. |
