For my B-School Faculty friends: I’m writing to let you know that my case on Go-Jek, the ride-sharing and food-delivery digital platform and Indonesian Unicorn, is live. I wrote it to meet my own needs for a case about Digital Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Asia, but many colleagues have contacted me about it because they’d like to go beyond the usual Silicon Valley suspects, so I thought I'd share here.... The case illustrates lessons about launching platforms, network effects and scaling, startups in emerging markets, winning in platform-based competition against foreign entrants (Uber and Grab), startup experimentation and diversification, and the mobile superapp phenomena that is becoming prominent in Asia (such as Wechat and Alibaba). The case is divided into A, B, C documents so you can surprise the students with outcomes; videos are available on the website: https://cases.insead.edu/go-jek/ Faculty can register for an inspection copy. Sorry if this is a bit too promotional/commercial, but I thought might actually help a faculty friend solve a syllabus problem!
