Summary

The past five years have seen a remarkable rise of entrepreneurial companies in digital technology. Chapter 5 examines this phenomenon through several case studies of e-commerce firms from various emerging economies: Alibaba (China), Flipkart (India), Jumia (Nigeria), and Mercado Libre (Argentina). It probes the business models aligned with the local environments these firms have honed, resulting in innovations such as pay-on-delivery, as well as different logistics and modes of delivery. It investigates the extent to which these firms have proven disruptive in their respective markets, their ability to expand regionally or globally, and future prospects.
