You should be aware already that, on 20 November, we reached a new
milestone: we finally *released* *our new whitepaper:* *New Foundations of
Platform-Ecosystem Thinking - Designing products and organizations for a
changing world.*

At the* live-streamed launch webinar,* we presented the *key findings of
the paper*, described the whitepaper *journey*, and explained what's *coming
next*. Building on these new foundations, we're going to create and
prototype new tools and practices that resonate with the changing needs and
priorities for organizations, platforms, and ecosystems in the 21st Century.

In case you missed the launch, below you'll find all the *essential links.*

Enjoy reading the *New Foundations of Platform-Ecosystem Thinking *
whitepaper!

With special guests, we'll be unpacking the new and unfolding ideas and
provocations from the whitepaper, and explore what else this peculiar year

organizational design.

*Engineering Scarcity ↴*

a
recent podcast conversation with Eugene Wei. Status and other emotional
aspects certainly play a great deal of a role in products (and networks)
and many of these 12 points are essential to keep in mind as you design
engaging platform strategies - "*engineering scarcity in a world of
abundance*".
*A Country-as-platform strategy for global influence ↴*

A great read from Sangeet Choudary
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=e73b8d8089&e=b760eb623a>expands
many of the initial conversations we recently had in our podcast: a
fundamental read to really understand the role of digital technologies and
ecosystemic agreements as a new field of geopolitics.

*Etsy and the Pandemic ↴*

Interesting reflections on

the pandemic and its impact on Etsy's numbers, driven by the need for Face
Masks. A good nudge to review the latest number-crunching blogs on the
website.
*The Everlasting Dream of Financial Super Apps ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=7b92ab0b2a&e=b760eb623a>

"Next to the international super-apps, there is room for 1 or 2 local
super-apps (per region). Financial services companies are well-positioned
to take this spot": a meaty blog post on financial ecosystem thinking
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=f74a9f1a45&e=b760eb623a>
and doing by Joris Lochy.
A must-read if you're in a bank or insurance company - albeit similar
considerations can be done for carriers and other major incumbents.
*Bringing an Ecosystem to the Market ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=a6eb0130a6&e=b760eb623a>

In this short post
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=715ca0d049&e=b760eb623a>,
Norma Watenpaugh catches one of the strategic choices you can make when
bringing a new ecosystem strategy to the market: bring the challengers on
board before the industry leaders.
It reminded us of Google's choices with the early Android, dropping Nokia
for newcomers such as Samsung, LG, and growing eastern brands (at that
time) such as ZTE and HTC. Worth a (short) read.
*The Democracy Flywheel ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=b4257959b0&e=b760eb623a>

In this heartful piece

Robyn Scott - an upcoming guest on Boundaryless Conversations Podcast
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=7c5fcd1f3c&e=b760eb623a>
- makes the case for democracies to leverage on the same techniques that
have been key to success for the large platforms of our times. Also,
democracy has a Flywheel to leverage according to Apolitical founder.
*A peek into Taobao Villages ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=f339025066&e=b760eb623a>

This blog post

highlights how the dynamics of e-commerce and fabrication transformed rural
China: 2500 "Taobao Villages" are defined as administrative areas with more
than 10% of the population involving in e-commerce activities.
* How Apple Is Organized for Innovation ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=84078c2573&e=b760eb623a>

It's interesting and important to look into views that subvert our
assumptions sometimes: as the readers know we're all for ultra-modular
architectures but what can a highly capable functional organization look
like?
*"Apple operates with no conventional managers in a multidimensional
structure. To create such innovations, Apple relies on a structure that
centers on functional expertise.
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=16e51587b8&e=b760eb623a>
From
multidimensional to functional structures. Its fundamental belief is that
those with the most expertise and experience in a domain should have
decision rights for that domain and may be useful for individuals and
companies wanting to better understand how to succeed in rapidly changing
environments."*

*CLASSIC READINGS (2016)  Steve Yegge's Google Platforms Rant**  ↴*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=b630f10b3f&e=b760eb623a>

We must say that the work that *nfx *is doing by bringing audio life to
classics of platform-ecosystem thinking is just awesome. Steve Yegge's 2016
rant on Google vs Amazon
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=56410575b2&e=b760eb623a>,
is truly a classic in platform-organizations capabilities and how to build
them. This audio version

*On every issue of the newsletter we remind you of two articles from our
gigantic content base that you may have lost - or simply was released
before you joined our community. Worth a read:*
>From April 2018 - *The 3 Social Layers of Platform Design
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=f8bd34bb2b&e=b760eb623a>*

In this post we explored the 3 neededd layers to focus on when designing
platform strategies, the individual one, to empower unexpressed potential,
the relationship layer to design for interactions and learn from and the
ecosystem one, focusing in how to impact the ecosystem context where is
developed.
>From June 2019 - *Can public institutions be platforms?*
<https://platformdesigntoolkit.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e272a9d50c52efb331777c60a&id=419a2f5c78&e=b760eb623a>

The focus of policy-making needs moves out into the ecosystem. In times of
complexity, when one designs a policy, she needs to design it in light of
the expectations, and potential, already present in the recipient’s
ecosystem. With shrinking public footprints, it’s increasingly more
difficult to imagine a policy that forces ecosystems toward certain
behaviors.
