The Strategic Role of Third‐Party Marketplaces in Retailing (2014, positive): “The increasing prevalence of third-party (3P) market-places, where 3P sellers use a platform provided by another ﬁrm to access customers, has sparked an interest in understanding the economics of platforms (Rochet and Tirole 2006).”
On the Value of Virtual Currencies (2019, methodology): “Additionally, we borrow from the so-called “two-sided markets” literature to explain the main factors that drive future consumer adoption and merchant acceptance of virtual currency as a payment instrument; see, e.g., Armstrong (2006) and Rochet and Tirole (2006).”
Coordinating Supply and Demand on an On-Demand Service Platform with Impatient Customers (2019, positive): “Rochet and Tirole (2003, 2006) use the product of the difference in price and wage rate, supply and demand in the objective function.”
Search engine competition with network externalities (2012, neutral): “See Rochet and Tirole (2006) for a technical overview of the theory.”
Merchant or Two-Sided Platform? (2007, methodology): “…our framework suggests an implicit definition of “two-sidedness”, relying on the division of control between sellers and intermediaries, rather than on the effects of the pricing structure chosen by the intermediary, as is the case with the definition proposed by Rochet and Tirole (2006).”
Value Creation in the Video Game Industry: Industry Economics, Consumer Benefits, and Research Opportunities (2013, background): “The concepts of two-sided markets and indirect network effects are related, in that most markets with indirect network effects are two sided (Rochet and Tirole 2003).”
Platform competition: Who benefits from multihoming? (2019, background): “For an insightful discussion of the use of different price instruments, see Rochet and Tirole (2006).”
Competition for Viewers and Advertisers in a TV Oligopoly (2007, neutral): “For general introductions to the theory of two-sided markets, see Armstrong (2005a) and Rochet and Tirole (2005) .”
Ridesourcing systems: A framework and review (2019, background): “Rochet and Tirole (2003, 2006 ) demonstrate the commonality across seemingly different businesses and markets with a clear characterization of the two-sided market.”
A Price Theory of Multi-Sided Platforms (2010, background): “By E. GLEN WEYL∗ Draft: October 6, 2009 I develop a general theory of monopoly pricing of networks.”
Introduction - Platforms and Infrastructures in the Digital Age (2018, background): “Direct interactions between producers and consumers outside of the platform, can harm the platform’s economic interests (Rochet and Tirole 2003, 2006), motivating platforms to control these forms of interactions.”
One-side value-added service investment and pricing strategies for a two-sided platform (2016, methodology): “For instance, to explore key principles that drive pricing in two-sided markets, Schiff (2007) illustrates basic pricing issues in two-sided markets using some simple linear models based on Rochet and Tirole (2006) and Armstrong (2006).”
Platform Competition: A Systematic and Interdisciplinary Review of the Literature (2020, neutral): “…contributed to our understanding of platforms also emerged over this time frame: two-sided markets (e.g., Argentesi & Filistrucchi, 2007; Armstrong, 2006; Bolt & Tieman, 2008; Y. Chen & Xie, 2007; Hagiu, 2009; Kaiser & Wright, 2006; Lin, Li, & Whinston, 2011; Rochet & Tirole, 2002, 2003, 2006).”
Pervasive Decentralisation of Digital Infrastructures: A Framework for Blockchain enabled System and Use Case Analysis (2017, background): “These considerations further lead to the known critical mass dilemma in a multi-sided market [32] if the adoption by either service providers or customers is low.”
