Platform business models have been adopted by numerous companies to disrupt a wide range of industries including but not limited to media, taxis, hotels, messaging, payments, and advertising etc. Join fellow Cornell, Harvard, Columbia and Penn alumni for a fireside chat with Sangeet Paul Chaudary, a widely recognized expert and a leading authority on platforms. Some of the topics in this discussion include the many different aspects of platforms, the benefits and adversarial effects, and how traditional industries like aviation, container shipping, construction, banking, and healthcare etc are being transformed in the platform economy.
