90% of B2B Platforms Are on the Wrong Track
According to data from Yiou Think Tank, in the first half of 2016, the B2B industry saw 81 investment and financing events totaling 7.6 billion RMB, a staggering growth compared to the 5.01 billion RMB invested in all of 2015. As the B2B entrepreneurship boom rises, market optimism has sparked various discussions about platform models. After long-term observation of the B2B industry, Li Lun, partner at Panda Capital, believes that 90% of platform entrepreneurs are on the wrong track, falling into the trap of "information matching." If "matching" is meaningless, then what is the real value that B2B platforms can deliver?
