How much do you know about the industry | What are the commonalities between industrial Internet platforms and consumer Internet platforms?

The industrial Internet platform is a new thing emerging with the evolution of the new industrial revolution and the platform economy. It is the center of the industrial Internet, the creative application of the platform economy in the industrial field, and the innovation and change in the organization of industrial production driven by digital technology. . Before that, we introduced the differences between industrial Internet platforms and consumer Internet platforms. However, industrial Internet platforms have many similarities with Internet platforms in the consumer fields such as e-commerce and travel, and they all follow the general principles of platform economy. The rules are embodied in the following aspects:

1. The key scale of the platform economy

The key economies of scale of the platform economy are equally applicable to industrial Internet platforms and consumer Internet platforms. If the industrial Internet platform wants to become bigger and stronger, the key lies in whether it can attract enough enterprise-level users to achieve the key scale to trigger network effects. Only when the key scale is reached can the platform’s self-growth mechanism be triggered and a virtuous circle of the platform will be formed.

The diversification of services

The diversification of services is the source of the platform’s attractiveness. Whether it is an industrial Internet platform or a consumer Internet platform, it needs to face different types of customers and is committed to providing them with rich service content. The innovative development and integrated application of various new technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and blockchain have created conditions for further enriching the service content of the platform in terms of technical support. Creating the greatest value for users is always the basis for the existence and development of the platform.

3. Construction and improvement of the ecosystem

The construction and improvement of the ecosystem has always been the focus of platform competition. The platform economy has transformed the traditional linear value chain into a multi-change and multi-layered open value network. Improving the platform ecology is the key to maintaining the continuous appreciation of the platform value.

4. Multi-agent innovation

The multi-agent competitive innovation and collaborative innovation further stimulate the innovation vitality of the platform under the action of the network effect. Whether it is an industrial Internet platform or a consumer Internet platform, many enterprises, users, application developers, and professional service solution providers are connected. There is both competition and cooperation among the participants of each platform, and jointly promote the platform to continuously innovate products, services and business models, and enhance the driving force for development.
