In the last two decades, the world has been overtaken by the emergence of a new form of business model: one based on platforms. While platforms are not strictly a novel phenomenon, the convergence with other technological developments –such as the dot.com revolution, the coming of age of artificial intelligence, big data, and robotics–has given platforms a whole new significance. Platform-based new entrants have disrupted industry after industry, and most scholars and pundits forecast that we have only seen the beginning of this tectonic change. This shakedown is far from circumscribed to specific industries or market segments, as experts think this is nothing short of a paradigmatic shift in how we do business (Choudary, 2015). The way that value is created, exchanged, and captured differs in digital platforms, as well as the basic rules of competition, and those companies that «don’t learn the new rules of strategy will be unable to compete for long» (Alstyne at al, 2016, p. 2).
