Product Description
Markets are transitioning from place to space – but as the collapse of the initial B2B boom demonstrated, the journey won’t be easy. Pioneering market makers from eBay and British Petroleum to the Dutch Flower Auctions and ChemConnect are leading the way to create new value through markets. Their experiences make two things increasingly clear: success in the marketspace will require new ways of operating, and participation won’t be optional. Ajit Kambil and Eric van Heck – respected authorities on electronic markets – argue that online auctions and exchanges will soon be an essential part of business practice. They explain why companies must adopt electronic markets now if they hope to compete in the future.
