DETAILS

Marketplace startups -- companies that focus on matchmaking vendors & customers -- are redefining business models in every industry. Investors & entrepreneurs see this model as something lucrative & promising; these startups can be employee light, low on liability, & have a huge upside if successful.
But growing & scaling a marketplace startup is challenging. A normal business has a target customer & a product or service, & focuses on delivering that product. A marketplace startup faces that problem, times two, while also trying to figure out the dynamics of the internal economy they've created.
