June 24, 2020Online FDP by KSOM (Day III): Systematic Literature Reviews
June 26, 2020The ways and means to create value by enterprises have changed with the changing forms of production and commerce. In the 1st Industrial revolution, the value creation was driven by the steam related technology. The 2nd industrial revolution witnessed value creation based on electricity. The next phase of industrial growth was driven by Microelectronics, Computers, Telecommunications, New man made materials, Robotics and Biotechnology. The current phase of industrial growth is driven by platform-mediated business. Out of the top six companies as per market capitalization, five, such as, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Facebook and Alibaba are platform mediated businesses. It has therefore become necessary for educators and learners to be aware of the evolving business models and develop a positive attitude towards the challenges, opportunities and way forward.
