Title
Multi-sided Platforms for the Internet of Things.
Abstract
This paper combines the concept of multi-sided platforms and the emerging market of the Internet of Things (IoT). At present, the IoT market is in an early stage, with an abundance of fragmented solutions targeting specific domains and/or specific types of applications. In this paper, we defend our position that software back-end IoT platforms offer considerable potential to become leading multi-sided platforms as the core of the complex IoT ecosystem and hence, a race for domination of the IoT platform market will appoint these platform leaders. Furthermore, some important trade-offs are discussed for platform providing companies that aspire to become leading multi-sided platforms in the Internet of Things industry.
