Era Of Monopolistic Companies

Era Of Monopolistic Companies

1)Apple took 456 months after IPO to reach a $1 trillion market cap. At that time, Apple made #macintosh and evolved with OS and iPods.

2)Apple took 24 months to move from $1 trillion to $2 trillion. The success came from #iPhones and #wearables.

3)Apple took 17 months to move from $2 trillion to $3 trillion. The success came from building a #connectedecosystem.

Larger companies can scale more rapidly than startups/unicorns, which shows that size does not matter.

In my view, what matters now is building a connected ecosystem and locking customers in that ecosystem by improving customer stickiness by offering personalised solutions. Tesla, Microsoft, and Google stick to the same concept.

Companies that succeed in this process would dominate while the others would either get acquired or become extinct.

I think we are entering the era of #monopolistic companies.
