About this course

Platform businesses connect different groups of users and create value through their interactions. This course examines the economics and strategic decisions behind that model, with examples including Airbnb, Uber and Amazon. It is aimed at entrepreneurs, business strategists and learners interested in digital marketplaces.

The course explores network effects, multi-sided markets and the differences between supply-side and demand-side economies of scale. It considers cross-side network effects and the early challenge of attracting participants when each group needs the other to be present.

Build, balance and sustain a platform

Launching and scaling bring questions of acquisition, retention, supply and demand, and monetization. The material also examines negative network effects and competition between platforms. These themes connect growth decisions with the quality and usefulness of the marketplace for its participants.

Platform design and architecture are discussed through user experience, engagement, APIs and data management. Privacy, security, trust, safety and regulation provide another part of the picture. AI applications include personalization, recommendation engines, market matching, fraud detection and pricing decisions.

Examples span e-commerce, the gig economy, app stores and content platforms. Each has its own considerations, from content monetization to the economics of app distribution. This range allows learners to compare the common platform model with the differences between sectors.

Adapt the course for entrepreneurs or business learners

PLR lets you rebrand, modify and resell the material. A business educator could use it within a digital-business curriculum, while an entrepreneurship trainer could adapt it around a particular marketplace idea. Supplementing the recorded examples with your own platform analysis is one way to tailor the course to your audience.
