01_ABSTRACT_SYNOPSIS

Matchmakers helps PMs understand the special dynamics of products that create value by connecting distinct participant groups. Evans and Schmalensee explain network effects, liquidity, cross-side interactions, and platform pricing in a way that is highly relevant to marketplaces and ecosystem products. It is a strong addition for PMs working on platforms where growth and product design are tightly coupled.
