Recommendation

With the fervor of evangelists, over-caffeniated cheerleaders, or breathy Amway sales mavens, Koulopoulos and Palmer introduce us to the X-economy, the business-to-business online marketplace emerging today, and according to the authors, certain to take over this and other galaxies tomorrow. The nuts and bolts of this book could’ve been easily presented in a magazine article instead, leaving the book-length presentation feeling a bit padded. Nevertheless, getAbstract.com recommends this book to anyone curious about what comes after the New Economy.

Take-Aways

  • The X-economy is short for the exchange economy.
  • Online exchanges soon will dominate markets and economies.
  • In every industry, limitless opportunities exist for online exchanges.
