Understanding platform business models: A mixed methods study of marketplaces (2017, background): “Platform literature has focused on specific strategic, tactical, and operational decisions, including pricing (Hagiu, 2009), openness (Boudreau, 2010; Gawer, 2015; Casadesus-Masanell & Hałaburda, 2014; Boudreau, 2007), complementor acquisition (Kim et al., 2016; Boudreau & Jeppesen, 2015), and…”
Business Model Innovation and Competitive Imitation: The Case of Sponsor-Based Business Models (2013, methodology): “Finally, the paper is related to the literature on platforms and multi-sided markets (e.g., Rochet and Tirole 2003; Caillaud and Jullien 2003; Armstrong 2006; Hagiu 2009; CasadesusMasanell and Ruiz-Aliseda 2009; Zhu and Iansiti forthcoming).”

A holistic market conceptualization (2015, background): “Multi-sided platform markets have different groups that businesses have to secure in order to succeed (Boudreau and Hagiu 2009; Evans 2003).”
Responses to Entry in Multi-Sided Markets: The Impact of Craigslist on Local Newspapers (2014, result): “Consistent with this intuition, a few theoretical studies show that an increase in competition on one side of a two-sided market can lead to an increase in price on the other side (Godes et al. 2009; Hagiu 2009).”
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).”
Multi-Sided Platforms (2015, positive): “In such a context, the re-seller mode might be the price to pay for overcoming unfavourable expectations as pointed out by Eisenmann and Hagiu (2007). The second implication of the higher cost structure of the re-seller mode is that, all other things being equal, the MSP mode is typically associated”
The Architecture of Platforms: A Unified View (2008, background): “…on the previous waves to explain the competitive dynamics of system industries (see, e.g., Evans, Hagiu and Schmalensee, 2006), its empirical scope is more general, including phenomena as diverse as credit card payment networks, shopping malls and dating services (Eisenmann, 2008; Hagiu, 2008).”
Price Coherence and Excessive Intermediation (2015, background): “Hagiu (2009) and Belleflamme and Peitz (2010) are among the few papers modeling the micro-structure of buyer and seller interactions in multi-sided platforms, but they do not allow buyers to bypass the platform and purchase directly from sellers, which is critical for evaluating price coherence.”
Network neutrality on the Internet: A two-sided market analysis (2012, neutral): “Despite a considerable literature discussing the rights and legal issues of network neutrality and its abolition, the literature on economic analysis of this issue is thin (Schuett (2010) provides a survey).”
